We are all very friendly with each other, and hang out in our IRCs, and #rust-osdev. I expect the situation to be better for all of us, as we can cross-pollinate, and improve each other's work. Ecosystems can be better than single monolithic projects.
There are a LOT of decisions that can go into making an OS. The compare/contrast in a few years should be really interesting.
However part of it's effort is directed into producing tutorials/book material for the educational etc use.
It's obviously up to 100% to them how and where are they going.
From the educational perspective it's _imo_ something worth considering at some point. E.g. combining this collective know-how into some sort of book. I know I would buy it.
