Comment on First C# 7 Design Meeting Notesparent

Let me know when Microsoft starts shipping Rust-level features, so we can deal with memory safely and reduce bugs without losing perf.

Is Rust 1.0 out yet?

They are on Microsoft research.

While the world still isn't ready for the likes of Singularity and IronClad, Spec# and Dafny, at least part of the technology has landed on Windows Phone 8 and .NET Native compilers.

Rust 1.0 is currently slated for 8-14 weeks away: http://blog.rust-lang.org/2014/12/12/1.0-Timeline.html

I know, and comparing its current state with what F# offers today doesn't make sense, not today.

In a few years time when Rust has the same eco-system has F# offers today to Windows devs, then we can compare the current state of the languages.

Sorry, I thought you were asking a question, not being rhetorical.
