Rust implementation status

[Sascha Grunert]

Hey Folks,

To make it clear for now: If you want to contribute, simply use GitHub issues and pull requests. I will take care of the synchronisation of the repositories for now.

It would be really cool if we can focus on merging our efforts and planning the next steps via GitHub issues. Discussions via the mailing list are very welcome as well.

I merged the first pull request for now. Thank you very much and have a nice weekend!

Best regards,
Sascha
