+1 for internationalization/localization; it's complex and the solution should be designed by the Rust team.

+1 for tokenizer, parser, just like Go has:
http://golang.org/pkg/go/

This will allow to build tools like "gofmt" (to format Rust code)

-1 for protobuf and thrift since they are not "standard". Instead, I prefer "csv" in the standard library

* The library "math" should be in the library since it's something basic to create things related to image and audio.
In addition a language like JavaScript comes with that library included:

Hi,

I saw the [wanted libraries] page on the github wiki, and I'd like to submit 
some ideas there.
The wiki page is read-only, so I fall back on submitting them on this list.

I tried to confine myself to what would be useful to me, in a stdlib.

* Internationalization : mechanisms for handling the internationalization of UI 
texts
  -> one aspect of i18n is to map a key to a text, based on the current locale 
(eg Java's [ResourceBundle])
  -> another aspect is to format a string based on the current locale (eg 
Java's [MessageFormat])

* Libicu is already listed on the wiki, but there are no details of what is 
needed. Here are my suggestions :
  -> Convertions between text encodings. Ideally, with a customizable way of 
handling conversion errors.
  -> Unicode normalization (NFD, NFC, NFKD, NFKC)
  -> Collator (locale sensitive string comparison), with a configurable degree 
of strictness

* Simple (yet powerful) search on a filesystem (eg Ruby's [glob])

* A simple tokenizer/file parser

* Support to read/write zip and tar file formats (not only the gzip algorithm)
