dropping hyper
The ride is coming to an end. The experiment is done. We tried, but we admit defeat. Four years ago we started adding support for an alternative HTTP backend in curl. It would use a library written in rust, called hyper.daniel.haxx.se
Bubu reshared this.

> There simply were no users asking for it and there were barely no developers interested or knowledgeable enough to work on it.
That “barely no” part should probably be “barely any” or, perhaps, “no”?

in reply to Phoenix K 🏳️⚧️ • • •@gretchenfrage Sure, if someone would write the code properly and offer it as another h3 backend we would happily accept it. We already support quiche, a fine h3 library written in rust. We support four different h3 backends already.
I personally just don't see the point with adding another one so I will not lead the work on anything such.
