I genuinely fail to understand this mentality of everything must be re-written in rust. There’s no reason to redo code that has been battle tested for literal decades. Sure, there may be vulnerabilities that pop up now and then, but that’s a problem regardless of the language. As a side note, rust binaries are utterly massive in comparison, which would immediately eliminate support for half of the supported devices today.
As a much better use of your time, I’d recommend you develop guidelines to better educate developers on writing secure code and designing secure systems.
Also, this project will never see any sort of official support as maintainer resources are already strained enough, and managing another entire fork would make the situation even worse.
