After reading Drew's pitch to the rust community to write our own kernel, I've searched for "linux abi compatible rust kernel" and found "Asterinas". Surprised that it is not mentioned here

Oh wow.. This might be what the rust in Linux people need to switch to. Fuck all the LKML bullshit, fuck mailinglists, fuck C, fuck the shitty tooling and hodgepodge of languages. This looks amazing. Seriously, cargo run and the kernel starts up in a VM? How friggin cool is that?

Wow...

The GPL is the kernels biggest feature, but this uses MPL, which doesnt protect the user at all.
