I wonder if I'll live long enough to witness the Rust rewrite of ReactOS

(it's written in C and has had a snail pace development, well, since forever. not meant as a negative btw. it's just that their resources and demand for it are quite limited afaik)

    Maybe they started developing before rust was mainstream. Battle-testing and debugging in the real world matters more than programming language anyways?
