Rust in the Linux Kernel by 2023, Linus Torvalds Predicts

Rust, the fast-growing systems programming language, may be merged into the Linux kernel next year, or “maybe the next release,” according to Linux creator Linus Torvalds.
The creator of Linux made the statement Tuesday during an on-stage interview at the Linux Foundation‘s Open Source Summit North America.
After his announcement drew enthusiastic applause from the summit audience at downtown Austin’s J.W. Marriott hotel, he cautioned, “Don’t get too excited. We know who you are.”
