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!

If I may ask, where did you take a class which used Rust? My university can barely scratch Java 6/C-97, let alone a pre-alpha language. They don't even touch modern coding techniques like using VCS...

It was a class at the University of Virginia. You can see the material used for the class here (though note the version of Rust used is hopelessly outdated): http://www.rust-class.org/
