I'm interested in Rust and have dabbled but don't follow the community too closely. Why do you say later this year, specifically?
Very nice to hear.
Many libraries use tokio::spawn behind the scenes, so it seems we need compat from 0.1 to 0.3 and back to 0.1 to get old futures to work with async/await and the resulting futures to work in 0.1 tokio.
Last time I checked the async/await feature in tokio had some weird crashes and tokio::spawn crashes when used inside romio...
