I'm not a member of the Rust community (yet), but there was no great leap to understand the oxidation "in-reference", it may very well be community slang, but the link between oxidation and rust in the English language is not at all misunderstood.
As for the agenda of re-write everything in Rust, I cannot comment; as a software engineer I love re-writing things in my new favourite language of the day, so my judgement is clouded.
- bluejekyll 5y agoI read that comment not as "re-write everything in Rust", but more "rewrite a subset of components in Rust where it might help with security and resiliency". Rust can certainly help with the latter, but very few projects will ever have the funding or time to achieve the former.
