My last interaction with Rust was when I commented that adoption would

imagine what it will look like in five years.
Same here. Want to solve the C++ problem, solve compilation speed first.
I can't see programmers suddenly willing to manage lifetimes
explicitely, also I can see the Rust syntax create an endless stream of
complaints.
I like the ML syntax, the problem is the extra Perl like syntax for
lifetimes and such.
The way things are, Swift is probably going to get more developers than
Rust.
