> if you disagree with the unilateral decisions of the rustc developers? "Go fork it or write your own"? Yeah that's what we're doing
If that's what you want to do, that's great. If you experiment with new stuff, and it pans out, Rust itself might benefit from that.
Since your goal is implementing something that differs from "Rust", calling it "Rust", is misleading at best, I think is unethical, and given the intent, probably illegal in most of the world since "Rust" is a registered trademark... (IANAL but if you were implementing a frontend for Rust, you could maybe use it, but for an intentionally different language, doesn't sound like it)
