Why not Boost? / Why not libuv?

Why not EventMachine? / Why not Celluloid?

Why not Twisted? / Why not gevent?

This is a really sad situation unfortunately. I was hoping Rust wouldn't head down this road.

To preempt: a systems language shouldn't dictate these high-level matters, but there certainly should be one "blessed solution" vs. a sea of incompatible libraries.

Go doesn't have this problem, Node.js doesn't have this problem, Elixir doesn't have this problem. Sad deal.
