Are you saying that http-conduit is better, more popular, or both, than
HTTP?

According to
    http://packdeps.haskellers.com/reverse/http-conduit
    http://packdeps.haskellers.com/reverse/HTTP
http-conduit has 33 reverse-deps to HTTP's 139, although these
measurements are somewhat flawed as they don't take into account whether
some of HTTP's rev-deps are old packages that have been abandoned, and
all things being equal you'd expect HTTP to have more users as it's part
of the HP.


Thanks
