Is the meeting on for this month?

[Michael Kerekes]

It seems like the meeting should be today?

If so, I can talk about my attempt to use Rust as a backend target(MM) for the Mana language. It is going well. I was able to add a garbage collected allocator to Rust.  It is very fast, more than 20x faster than using Rc<>.  I also have a prototype of gc aware async and MVar.  There are limitations at the moment. MM only works for GC aware types and single threaded code.

I'm sorry to miss again, I'll be in the air flying back from a meeting in Boston. Hope to see y'all next month!

This should be the link to the zoom meeting; it's actually the same every month so I just copied and pasted from last month: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86781527817?pwd=TkxUREdQZ0k3QTNUYjNrQ2F2b0tMUT09
