Hard to say, because it's not clear from the JEP draft what your "cause" 
is here.  I get the enthusiasm for Rust, but I am unclear on the point 
of a JEP that includes the following:

Non-Goals:

If the goal is to produce a proof-of-concept that shows "hey, we can 
write parts of the JDK/JVM in Rust", that sounds more like a hobby 
project, not a "JDK Enhancement".

So what are you trying to accomplish here?
