- Give us some time to experiment with Rust and introduce proper build infrastructure.
- Give distributors time to ease into the new toolchain requirements. Introducing Rust is impossible for some platforms and hard for others.
- Announce that Git 3.0 will make Rust a mandatory part of our build infrastructure.
