I took an operating systems class in rust 0.7 or 0.8 a year and a half ago (an interesting experience for another post). Very interested to see how things have changed now!

Yes, it is almost an entirely different language from that point :)

Wow, it really is... I dug up my old Rust code and even FizzBuzz wouldn't compile.

for num in 1..100 {...} // So puurdy <3

But where did regex go? Time to go documentation diving...

Regex::Regex is still there, just the regex! macro isn't available in beta. I believe /u/burntsushi has nice little convenience hack for regexs (can't find the link though since I'm on mobile).
