I didn't know Rust was Mozilla. I thought it was FF, TB, and "generic OSS projects like Apache but less well-known".

Yeah, Rust is a Mozilla project. Graydon worked at Mozilla, and them interested in taking it as an official project.

Why do you think Mozilla is using Rust so much? (See servo, pushing rust components into FF, etc) They're not exactly known for jumping onto new things...

Trying out new web technologies that are experimental doesn't count?
