The first ever Rust for Linux conference, known as Kangrejos, got underway on
September 13. Organizer Miguel Ojeda used the opening session to give
an overview of why there is interest in using Rust in the kernel, where the
challenges are, and what the current status is. The talk and following
discussion provided a good overview of what is driving this initiative and
where some of the sticking points might be.
