Well, Rust is MIT + Apache 2.0, so they can do this. It isn't copyleft.

Personally I consider it a a shame that rust and it's ecosystem isn't at least weakly copyleft (e.g. LGPL or MPL) though there are some good reasons not to use those specifically. (LGPL isn't not well defined if you don't use dynamic linking, MPL is younger than rust, but would have been an excellent fit otherwise). And the ecosystem follows the leader for the most part.

But that is neither here nor there, and I'm not interested in arguing about licenses on the Internet. :)

Observe our code of conduct

Strive to treat others with respect, patience, kindness, and empathy.

We observe the Rust Project Code of Conduct.

Submissions must be on-topic

Posts must reference Rust or relate to things using Rust. For content that does not, use a text post to explain its relevance.

Post titles should include useful context.

For Rust questions, use the stickied Q&A thread. [TBD]

Arts-and-crafts posts are permitted on weekends.

No meta posts; message the mods instead.

Constructive criticism only

Criticism is encouraged, though it must be constructive, useful and actionable.

If criticizing a project on GitHub, you may not link directly to the project’s issue tracker. Please create a read-only mirror and link that instead.

Keep things in perspective

A programming language is rarely worth getting worked up over.

No zealotry or fanaticism.

Be charitable in intent. Err on the side of giving others the benefit of the doubt.
