Sorry, that name is reserved for the next step in the project - a parentheses-heavy input syntax for Rust, or more plausibly, for the simplified representation thereof known as MIR. Its biggest impact on the tech industry will actually be to significantly broaden the appeal of the Rust Evangelism Strike Force; indeed, it's expected that very few programs will ever be written in Lust, and that even the programs that are written in the language will be largely toy examples! But the overall effect has nevertheless been considered to be highly worthwhile, so the project will go forward.
- wuschel 7y agoJust curious: Isn't MIR not a moving target with lots of changes going on? Perhaps a direct translation to Rust syntax would be a better choice.
- steveklabnik 7y agoMIR is not stable, that’s correct.
