I think it's too early to say. So far Python devs have not admitted any |
| 7 |
relevance between Python supported architectures and Rust supported |
| 8 |
architectures. It is still possible that they would wish to block minor |
| 9 |
architectures even if Rust were ported there. |

On the other hand, what we need right now is a major effort towards |
| 12 |
making Rust installable on the Gentoo architectures that are supported |
| 13 |
by Rust upstream. Maybe our Rust developers would use some funding to |
| 14 |
be able to dedicate more time into it. |
