Why is Intermezzos marked as not being pure Rust?

[bwinterton]

I am just wondering why intermezzOS has been flagged as not being a pure Rust implementation? The repository contains nothing but Rust code and Assembly (It also shows Ruby from a vagrant file). If there is something I am missing I would love to know! Thanks for your help!

I think by pure Rust, they mean only in Rust. The Assembly code is for booting and handling interrupts, which you could do in pure Rust.

That is a possible interpretation. However redox is listed as pure rust but also contains assembly code.
