+After sudo-rs was included in the [25.10 release of Ubuntu](https://canonical.com/blog/canonical-releases-ubuntu-25-10-questing-quokka), Marc was invited to the Ubuntu Summit to talk about the design choices that shaped sudo-rs. You can now watch the recording of the talk.

+## About sudo-rs
+
+[sudo-rs](https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/sudo-rs) is a safety-oriented and memory-safe implementation of sudo and su written in Rust. It was initiated by [Prossimo](https://www.memorysafety.org/initiative/sudo-su/), built by a joint team from [Ferrous Systems](https://ferrous-systems.com/) and [Tweede golf](https://tweedegolf.nl/en), and has since moved to Trifecta Tech Foundation to ensure long-term maintenance.
+
+It is meant to be a drop-in replacement for all common use cases of sudo, i.e. supporting all commonly used command line options from [the original sudo implementation](https://www.sudo.ws/).
+
+This also means that some parts of the original sudo are explicitly not in scope.  To learn about the considerations that were made, watch the recording of Marc's talk:
