Hi,
I'm just curious as to which library people prefer. I know Guile comes with its web libraries that let you make HTTP requests, but I'm also aware that libcurl has bindings for Guile. Do you prefer the former, or the latter? Or are there any other libraries that do HTTP requests that I've not heard of?
Thanks.

Hi James,
For whatever it's worth, I prefer Guile's built-in web modules, especially
now that they can handle https.

Same, also to not have to add an additional dependency.
A bit offtopic, but in guile-oauth someone suggested to pass an http
request procedure to one of the functions (use guile's http-request by
default) so internally guile-oauth would use whatever the user passed, if
anything. I think that's a good and flexible idea if you build libraries.
