 Well, if you bothered to do some research, you would have quickly found out 
 that this is 
 already happening. I have made a lot of contributions upstream and in Debian 
 to enable Rust 
 on new architectures.

 You are aware that isn't something that happens over night and requires a 
 lot 
 of elbow grease? 
  
 Either way, this is being worked so there is no need to use a wording like 
 Julian did and 
 threatening an ultimatum to fellow members of the Debian Community. Please 
 always keep in 
 mind that there are humans sitting at the other end of the line and while 
 you 
 may think it's 
 appropriate to use this kind of wording against others, you might be put off 
 by it if it was 
 directed against yourself.
