    Well, the rust devs are trying to add more rust code, and the dma maintainer rejected it because it was was written in rust. Thus, the question.

        That’s the thing though, he’s not in charge of this code.

            He’s not in charge of the rust code they want to merge. They asked him about it because their code talks with the dma system.
