 So I have promised for a long time to find some more holistic way to write down my thoughts on unsafe Rust semantics.
 I thought I could do it in 2021, but I, uh, "slightly" missed that deadline... but better late than never!

 The purpose of MiniRust is to describe the semantics of an interesting fragment of Rust in a way that is both precise and understandable to as many people as possible.
 These goals are somewhat at odds with each other -- the most precise definitions, e.g. carried out in the Coq Proof Assistant, tend to not be very accessible.

+**Update (2023-02-13):** "Pseudo Rust" has now been renamed to "specr lang", the language of the work-in-progress "specr" tool that can translate specr lang into Rust code to make specifications executable. **/Update**

 So, if you want to look into my brain to see how I see Rust programs, then please go check out [MiniRust](https://github.com/RalfJung/minirust).
-The README explains the scope and goals, the general structure, and the details of pseudo Rust, as well as a comparison with some related efforts.

 In particular I find that the concept of "places" and "values", which can be rather mysterious, becomes a lot clearer when spelled out like that, but that might just be me.
 I hasten to add that this is *very early work-in-progress*, and it is *my own personal experiment*, not necessarily reflecting the views of anyone else.
