You mean, curl as in the link library projects link in, or curl as in the executable front-end that most people think of when they think of curl?

There are countless (Ok, a little hyperbole there) downloaders and http request CLI tools already, implemented in just about any language you like. But curl as a linkable library - I am skeptical any Rust library will replaced libcurl anything soon except in Rust projects.

Anyway, the new hotness language everyone is rewriting their Rust projects in is Nim. Rust is passé now.
