FreeBSD Developers Discuss Rust Usage in Base System

Alan Somers, the developer of the new FreeSD driver for FreeBSD and the author rust-border over some libraries FreeBSD, began discussion the process of turning on the code in Rust in the base system. During the discussion of the project commanders, the price and advantage of implementation were determined. The cost of including support for Rust will be doubling the assembly time, and the advantage is to simplify the development of some utilities.
