"Rust" language

[bearophile]

Found the new system language named Rust, currently in development stage by Mozilla group:

It uses both a more normal GC and reference count, for different purposes. This can be a good idea.
It allows to use both mutable and immutable data, the default is immutable.
It uses an idea named "Typestate" that I have just started reading about.
Logging is built-in and done widely. It tries to follows some of the reliability ideas from Erlang.
It looks quite more complete than the Go language.
