Claims

  1. Linus Torvalds announced plans to accept Rust patches for Linux kernel 6.1, calling it a signal to the world that 'it's finally happening.'
    "Linus Torvalds spoke up at the beginning of the session to say that he plans to accept the Rust patches for the 6.1 kernel (likely to be released in mid-December) unless he hears strong objections."
