Description:
Emma Smith and Kirill Podoprigora, two of Python's core developers, have opened a
discussion about including Rust code in CPython, the reference implementation of
the Python programming language. Initially, Rust would only be used for optional
extension modules, but they would like to see Rust become a required dependency
over time. The initial plan was to make Rust required by 2028, but Smith and Podoprigora indefinitely postponed that goal in response to concerns raised
in the discussion.
