Or the container room? Or the HPC room? Just submit, you never know.

Not very, I suspect, until we come with a solution that solves *their*
problems. The popularity of Rust is something of an enigma to me. This
is not the place to give a Rust rant, but I do think that packaging
needs to happen at the distribution level, rather than at the language
level. Most modern languages go down that route - it is not great.
