This shouldn't be downvoted. It's an opinion that is unpopular here, but which needs to be stated occasionally. The FSF is extreme, and, right now, not 10-20 years ago, but right now, the FSF and Stallman are negative assets f

Oh, not at all! I'm sorry I gave that impression. I was referring to uutils, and, more particularly, some folks (GPL advocates) who are disappointed about the choice of license (MIT). See, for example: https://github.com&#

Are you running an irregular version of libc? Something else unusual?

Same with cp. Could not reproduce on the Mac or Linux.

Could not get mv to fail as you did on the Mac or Linux. Would you re-run with the latest bits and let me know what your platform is? I am going to fix these two bugs, if they still exist.

Yeah, the hate for this project is ridiculous. I'm not a professional programmer. I did it just for fun, because I wanted to learn Rust. Some of these tools need someone to fill out some basic functionality, and you probably use som

I've contributed a few small bits to uutils and in the testing I did, on those few small bits, the performance case is pretty exciting. Much easier to do concurrency with rayon, etc.

What do you feel like you're missing in userspace?

Haha, I'm sorry if it seemed like I ever knew what I was talking about. I thought asking questions would make it clear that I don't. Remain interested in the potential advantages of Ada compared to Rust for Linux kernel developme

Re: spec, not if the spec is implementation (and project's values) defined. I mean -- the Rust project has a ridiculous # of tests which define language behavior without having an ISO standard. Yes, implementation defined behavior in

Ada maybe isn't very well adapted to kernel code? From what I know of Ada, doesn't it get it's memory safety from either a GC or not freeing memory entirely? That is -- ownership rules are pretty new to Ada/SPARK. C-st

It is worth noting that the GPL2-CDDL license incompatibility is still a theoretical legal issue, and that there are differing learned opinions with respect to the confluence of the CDDL, GPL2, and ZFS. For instance, Eben Moglen, co-author
