#3Very appreciate the work on bastion, which really gets the spirit of erlang actor programming with the supervisor-ing strategy!
The code is clean and well documented, and I cannot believe the project is not well-known by rust communities.

#4This looks promising, though the "No Forced Trait Implementations" seems to instead require using a strange looking msg!() macro?

Seems less clean to read than Riker (https://riker.rs), though that doesn't really do async well.

Yes, the msg!() macro is a little painful to write.
I think it can be refactored into the pattern like `impl Handler`.
But beyond that, it supports async/await naturally. :)

BTW: They are working on Hot-Code Swap.

#7I have hard time understanding what this is. Is an alternative to docker somehow? What other framework/platform would bastion compete with?

It’s more like Nats.io - an async message server, just for rust

#9Could we hear a little more about the background of the project, including what it's being developed for? Really interested to learn more about the project, this looks great

So did it. I didn't know if it was a service or a library or if it integrates with something. Looks like it's a library for Rust. I think mentioning Rust would speed up the understanding of where this sits
