I'm not ridiculing Redox at all, if you read further down the thread I give credit top them where credit is due, although I think they will have an uphill battle unless they receive some major corporate backing at some point. I save my ridicule for the frothing at the mouth C/C++ haters jeering from the sidelines who seem to that think that that battle is already won. Linux grew rapidly in part because there was already a huge amount of C programmers on the Internet as well as UNIX admins, and Linux was reimplementing a fairly well known set of API's. Rust/Redox don't have quite the same head start. I wish them every success though.
