The topic of the Rust experiment was just discussed at the annual
Maintainers Summit. The consensus among the assembled developers is that
Rust in the kernel is no longer experimental — it is now a core part of the
kernel and is here to stay. So the “experimental” tag will be coming off.
Congratulations are in order for all of the Rust-for-Linux team.

(Stay tuned for details in our Maintainers Summit coverage.)
