I want to be excited about Rust or any more popular new language but as a package manager through various projects I have encountered problems which the language package managers (the ones we would have to rely on) do not solve; the languages itself do not address and some packaging related problems which make dealing with all of this as an understatement: problematic.
If we ever intend to switch, I would like to carefully (ie maybe moderated, (not public?,) to avoid bikeshed and a infinite loop of language X is better than language Y opinions) discuss it. I am not against Rust, or Go. The perspective of an application developer is (usually) focused on other parts than the perspective of someone who distributes and builds applications in a multi-OS environment with more than one hardware.
