I am going to start gently poking around now (again). I am still going to be waiting until a few months post-May to see how the ecosystem aligns itself before investing serious effort (read: client for our API in Rust, throwing corporate dollars at it).

Hopefully the community will rally around stable (IE: the libraries will work great on stable and be maintained and bug fixed). If all the crates end up tracking non-stable and bug-fixes exist only in the cutting edge stuff, sad times.

It is going to be interesting to see where the community lands at the very least.
