Comment on Roto: A Compiled Scripting Language for Rustparent

Comments

I see. The problem is you left out that only non-networking contexts were considered, so that list missed the most relevant answer with no explanation.

If you look back you will see that networking contexts was assumed. I was trying to make the point that BGP can have multiple meanings. Between all the other replies and me not being a great writer that context was lost. However if you just the parent of my reply and then my post in isolation I think it still makes sense why I wouldn't have mentioned that context.

It’s on a site called NL Net Labs and it’s mentioned in this way:

The need for Roto comes from Rotonda, our BGP engine written in Rust. Mature BGP applications usually feature some way to filter incoming route announcements.

I think networking and routing specifically is fair to assume.
