This is an optional replacement of the threadsafe queue. We already have a C version that's used in production. So if we hit a bug in the rust version, we already have a tried-and-tested C version to revert back to :) So we are not in a rush to "fix" it if we find an issue. As well, rust is not "enabled-by-default" in this patch - that's a different decision. This is to say "we can optionally include pieces" today. We can still back out :) > > best regards > thierry > > > On 11/07/2017 03:51 AM, William Brown wrote: > > Hi, > > > > https://pagure.io/389-ds-base/issue/49325 has been in a ready to > > merge > > state for some time.
