Interesting article. And congratulations for the release!<p>Sorry this is a bit off-topic (and doesn't apply to H2O as it's been in the works for a while looking at the commits), but I wonder, today, with a language like Rust (1.0 is at the door [1]), as performant as its safe C equivalent but modern and safe by design (and with an escape hatch to C/C++ if needed), what would be the advantages of starting a long term project of this type in C today?<p>[1] <a href="http://blog.rust-lang.org/2014/12/12/1.0-Timeline.html" rel="nofollow">http://blog.rust-lang.org/2014/12/12/1.0-Timeline.html</a><p>Edit: why the downvotes?
