Not yet, no. There exist libraries for URIs and HTTP requests and
responses, but Guile doesn't have an API to tie them together (yet?).

Something similar to python's twisted would be extra cool IMO.
Just in case someone feels the motivation :)

I don't know much about it, but serveez might be going in that
direction.

Unfortunately, from a quick fly-by of serveez manual I wouldn't say so.
While, from some high level viewpoint, twisted can be seen as a mere
server build helper, it's also much more than than: it's actually an
event driven(*) framework for building elaborated protocols. For
instance, you inherit the HTTP protocol implementation and override its
'message received' hook and voilà, you are implementing your own protocol
over HTTP.
Have used it a couple of times and I must say I've never encountered
another lib in any other language that make it so easy to write both
servers and clients (when high perfs are not required).
I'm far from being a python fan but twisted and scapy are two pieces of
python code any hacker should have a look at, and which I'd love to
see equivalents in other languages, IMHO.
(*) but using python 'yield' builtin it becomes lightweight threaded;
although python's thread are ashamedly inefficient it's still easier to
read/write code written this way.

I am familiar with twisted; though perhaps in an older incarnation. A
former work used it heavily, and hacking it was my main job. TBH though
I am unconvinced. I would prefer erlang / termite-style concurrency,
rather than inversion of control. Just MHO of course; lots of people do
like twisted :)

library for requesting an url? and get the contents?
Guile-WWW has module (www main):
http://www.nongnu.org/guile-www/doc/main.html
and other stuff:
http://www.nongnu.org/guile-www/
If it doesn't work with your Guile, that's a bug!
