Great responses!

I wish you the best of luck and when I am able to be involved with OSS again, I will gladly help out with Redict. I think the LGPL is a good choice.

Areas where I would personally want to see Rust in a project like this, a) parsing and talking with the network b) extension mechanism moved to Wasm (Wasmtime for execution) but that plugins would be moved into a Wasm container.

It would also be a nice property if the core of the project maintained a compile to Wasm compatibility so that Redict could be run everywhere.



Thanks! It would be great to have your help.

I think your Rust/wasm goals are a little bit dramatic for the goals we established among ourselves, but by all means start a conversation about it. Good support for compile-to-wasm is probably something that we'd be down to have upstream, though.
