The website states: "OpenVMM is a modular, cross-platform, general-purpose Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM), written in Rust."

I'd leave out the "written in Rust", because who cares, but I think it's in the license terms for Rust that you need to include that in when communication your project. The modular and cross-platform is much more interesting that the implementation language, and much more relevant for the majority of the users. I'd focus on that if I wrote the documentation and marketing material. One excuse I'd make is that the link is to the Github repository, where it's perhaps more relevant that you're informed that you'll be looking at Rust code.

at the time I wrote the comment, the only description was "OpenVMM is a new VMM for Windows and Linux, written in Rust." without even specifying what VMM referred to.
