But nobody makes announcements and blog posts about running that.
There's several blog posts here. https://www.memorysafety.org/initiative/av1/
And the first post is about the team working on the project, with about two and a half sentences on c2rust, and making it very clear they just started.

Did they not make the announcement? And they definitely promised a blog post even if it's not out yet.
Not on their blog, website, or twitter, so no?
