The author of that other project seems keen on the idea of writing an entire frontend instead of just hijacking MIR. His idea is a lot more ambitious, but he has also been a lot less active. While I would be ecstatic to see his project succeed and for there to be multiple full compiler implementations, I expect to see this project get results a lot more quickly.
I agree with much of the discussion. Also:
Please join forces with https://github.com/redbrain/gccrs and don't try to do that by yourself. We need one good Rust frontend for GCC not multiple projects that both fail.
Thank you.
