Every week or so there seems to be drama about some old dude shouting about how rust in the Linux kernel is bad. Given all the open hostility, is there easier way for R4L to continue their work?

    If people can’t work together, forking usually “solves” the problem.
    Let’s see if they end up working together.

      Forking does not solve the problem, it escapes it. The problem in the main Rust Kernel will stay, not working together, arguing, while the fork might work for those who work on the fork. This is not a driver or feature where they can fork, work on it separately. It completely misses the point.
