[R-pkg-devel] Feedback on "Using Rust in CRAN packages"

Dirk Eddelbuettel 
The concerns over github going away (!!) (or altering references, tags,
releases, ...) may be somewhat alleviated by Software Heritage [1] covering
and 'preserving' it.  FWIW I briefly spoke about that iniative and a possible
CRAN connection at useR! in Toulouse four years ago [2].

I think I understand where CRAN is coming from. Builds for Debian have the
same requirements of 'everythin all at once better be local'.  Sadly what I
see in day to day life (hello cmake, hello vcpkg) moves firmly the other way.
We shall see how it all shakes out.

I would be very much in favor of workable rust (and then go, and so on)
solution.
