necaris··on Thoughts about the cutting-edge of server programming
The goroutine model allows a lot of tasks to be handled in parallel without the application developer having to worry about it. So, for example, a web framework can have one goroutine per request and scale very well. That is what I would love to see in Rust, although I know it isn't likely right now since a lot of the ecosystem is still maturing.

I haven't yet found a supported Rust answer to goroutines, though -- am I missing something?

Not that experienced, but enthusiastic -- does that count ;-)?

I've been curious about the HTTP implementation, particularly considering that `rust-http` is in bugfix-only mode and `teepee` is still in design phase. Did you folks build it from scratch?

I might help out with this too -- I've been learning Rust recently and I suspect this would help me get up to speed a bit more.

I was there too. They were being obnoxious by stinking up the place (it didn't help that they got louder & less funny, i.e. more obnoxious, through the evening), and that is what got people's attention.

Anything that happens on the official premises of a professional, heavily sponsored and highly scrutinized conference is to some extent the responsibility of the organizers. They _had_ to do something.

Nothing wrong with tongue-in-cheek. So long as it's something you'd be comfortable saying in front of your boss -- it's a professional conference, after all. The Code of Conduct is pretty clear.
