There was a lot of good and a lot of bad! It was absolutely necessary to get Rust going. But even as the project started, senior leadership at Mozilla wanted to make sure that it was a community thing, not a Mozilla specific thing.

Even though Mozilla was pretty hands-off from Rust, management wise, one thing being in control of something like this just has a lot of effects. I'm not really prepared to go into a full retro of Mozilla's involvement with Rust here, I just wanted to note that there was also a lot of good there.
