At least for curl the project leadership is closely involved, as evidenced by a related article on Stenbergs blog [1] and the ISRG annoucement [2], which mentions funding Stenberg directly and is actually linked from this anouncement... Please don't make statements like that without doing a minimal amount of effort to verify.

Maybe I got it backwards, but it’s a PR post, and the burden is on the author to make the point clear. I’ve read it 3 times and still can’t find any sentence where they state clearly what the development strategy is. And from link #2 that you posted, I see they talk about the curl stuff, but also show a bunch of repos with tools rewritten from scratch, e.g. https://github.com/ctz/rustls https://github.com/ctz/rustls So I really cannot draw a conclusion one way or the other. Normally I’m an optimist, but after the recent chromium misunderstandings, I am going to err on the cynical side.
