Re: Optional rust support review

    Hi William,

    I see benefit to offer the support of modern language in
      389-ds. Rust developer can be interested to improve 389-DS with
      missing functionality.

      Especially with the plugin-api we have the ability to support rust
      without change to the core server. If a rust plugin hit a bug, we
      have the ability to disable it until a rust expert can fix it.

      #49325 implements rust functionality into a crucial core server
      component (nunc stans). The consequence is that we do need to be
      able to fix it rapidly. Correct ?

      best regards

      thierry

      Hi,

https://pagure.io/389-ds-base/issue/49325 has been in a ready to merge
state for some time. This is still an optional integration (not a
commitment to production rust), but I still want to check that it's
okay to merge. It's been reviewed by an external Rust developer who is
happy with it, and checked by Mark. I would like to merge this on
Friday, so I would love to hear comments about this before then.

A discussion on production commitment will happen in the near future I
think as to whether we want to pursue this path,

Thanks!
