Hi everyone,

I am long time reader and follower of Rust. Great job with the design and
implementation.

I would argue that a skilled C++ programmer doesn't even need to see an
example. They know very well all of the memory issues they have and will
encounter when using C++. I believe that if they are open minded. they
would see the value of Rust. You can probably argue that those blogs and
tutorials should target beginner/intermediate programmers.

I didn't need a 30 minute tutorial to see the value of Rust. Again, a
_non-religious_ skilled C++ programmer doesn't need a tutorial to see the
value of Rust. To me it feels like tutorials should be catered toward
beginner and intermediate programmers.

Thanks a lot of the great language. Can't wait for version 1.0
