Well, if you bothered to do some research, you would have quickly found out 
that this is
already happening. I have made a lot of contributions upstream and in Debian to 
enable Rust
on new architectures.

You are aware that isn't something that happens over night and requires a lot 
of elbow grease?

Either way, this is being worked so there is no need to use a wording like 
Julian did and
threatening an ultimatum to fellow members of the Debian Community. Please 
always keep in
mind that there are humans sitting at the other end of the line and while you 
may think it's
appropriate to use this kind of wording against others, you might be put off by 
it if it was
directed against yourself.
