IMHO the biggest blocker for Rust inside OpenBSD is that the project already has killed C developers and moving (some stuff) to Rust will need time and effort that could be put into other problems.

If they had to stabilize some parts, probably the answer would be different.

I'm all for dropping C in favor of Rust for new projects, but killing C developers is going a bit too far, don't you think?
