The fosdem page about the talk is there [1]. I can not find the video recording on the corresponding room page [2]. I hope it has been recorded and will be added, I'm really interested to listen and watch the talk.

Seems it’s pending review: https://review.video.fosdem.org/overview

Per here: https://video.fosdem.org/2019/README.txt

Someone should reach out to the speaker so he can review it and get it released.


Awesome, thanks for the links. I didn't knew about the reviews, and on the phone it was fastidious to search for more :) I'll have a look tomorrow, and if nobody will have reported here to have contacted him, I'll try to do it myself.


I've contacted the speaker. In the meantime, the recording is available at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Y3iEWKGwfEvFaLjwra59-u5jQI....


Awesome :) Thanks a lot!!


I didn’t know about it either, but clicked through all the rooms thinking maybe it was misfiled, then ended up at the Readme. Glad I didn’t skip it as it had the relevant info!


I've had a look through the PDF but can't seem to find a reference to how much of the micro-kernel is written in unsafe Rust.

I guess I want to know how useful Rust's safety really is if the kernel doesn't use it much.
