@folkertdev is presenting about zlib-rs in his talk 'Compression Carcinized: Drop-in Compatible Compression in Rust' at the @gosim conference in Beijing on Thursday:

"Data compression is used when loading almost anything on the web. This talk is about how we implement zlib-rs and other compression algorithms in Rust so that they are drop-in compatible with their C equivalent."

Pure Rust? Yes. Safe code? No.
(Also Documentation? None. Comments? Nope.)
I actually like "normal" rust approach that the programmer is required to explain reasons for unsafe code, and detail why is it safe and how.
Still I hope that's only due to being v0.3 and/or my natural born ignorance. 😉
