This is forking for all the wrong reasons. I mean, as a Rust user, why should I use your compiler fork?
I am hopeful the same thing will happen than with node.js/io.js, and it will iron itself out.
At least they didn't name it Crust.
This is a futile move.
Well, people fork languages and libraries all the time. Does this fork have a significant amount of support? By whom? Or why is this news worthy?
Rust has been rather monolithic. There is no such thing as a rust spec, just whatever the rust compiler does. This is a good first step to making it into a language people work in rather than just blog about.
Also, people already do work in Rust. It's in the Linux kernel right now.
This happened a while ago and was related to the trademark/copyright issue. It’s an immature move and I can’t take this seriously. All this does is creating unnecessary drama surrounding the Rust foundation.
They are doing a fantastic job of creating drama all by themselves.
I don't use Rust, but the constant childish bickering has turned me away from even caring to.
