+ o Major features (security, stability, experimental):
+
+ - Tor now has the optional ability to include modules written in
+ Rust. To turn this on, pass the "--enable-rust" flag to the
+ configure script.
+
+ It's not time to get excited yet: currently, there is no actual
+ Rust functionality beyond some simple glue code, and a notice at
+ startup to tell you that Rust is running. Still, we hope that
+ programmers and packagers will try building with rust
+ support, so that we can find issues with the build system,
+ and solve portability issues. Closes ticket 22106.
