Airlie: On Rust, Linux, developers, maintainers

Dave Airlie <a href="https://airlied.blogspot.com/2024/08/on-rust-linux-developers-maintainers.html" rel="nofollow">makes
an analogy</a> between the stages of road building and those of adding Rust
to the Linux kernel.


	For the wayfinders the process of interacting with maintainers is
	frustrating and slow, and they don't enjoy it as much as
	wayfinding, and because they still only care about the hotel at the
	end, when a maintainer gets into the details of their particular
	intersection they don't want to do anything but go stay in their
	hotel. 

	The road will get built, it will get traffic on it. There will be
	tunnels where we should have intersections, there will be bridges
	that need to be built from both sides, but I do think it will get
	built.
