HI Yuan, Well … I have no issues with them dropping the rust client … I just knew that we were also using it and that we might care if it goes away. I would assume, once they drop the rust client, we probably should also drop our IoTDB rust client, as we won’t be getting any updates on the one we’re using.

Hi Chris, It is truly a pity to hear that the Apache Thrift project is considering dropping its Rust support. Regarding our side, the IoTDB Rust client hasn't been actively maintained for quite some time. We also haven't received much feedback or seen high demand for it within our community recently, so it might be difficult for us to find someone with the spare cycles and active Rust expertise to help out at this moment. However, perhaps the Datafusion community might be a better group to reach out to? They have many Rust experts who might be able to provide some assistance.
