Tokio feels like something that needs its own funding and dedicated team... it feels like its development has been slower than what you would expect of a critical (to me) tool for elegantly handling async connections, which is particularly important for web servers.

I'll happily fund one person full-time to work on that, but you'll have to convince the primary author to go for it :-)

I'm curious what gives you that impression. What do you think is missing or should be tackled sooner than later? There has been a lot of evolution, however it has all been done in backwards compatible ways so there has not yet been a need to bump the version. It's also spread out across a number of crates.
