Announcing Rust 1.0 Beta
I like Rust, and I'm probably missing something, but do I feel that some things should be easier.  At times the language (or standard library, I suppose) feels a bit unwieldy.  For example, trying to coerce a string from certain types:<p><pre><code>    let path = Path::new(&app_path)
    println!("file name: {}", path.file_name().unwrap().to_str().unwrap());
</code></pre>
Hopefully this is just a case of unfamiliarity, but surely something like should be easier?
