What is the relationship between the 'websocket' and 'servo-websocket' crates?

[faern]

On crates.io there is one crate named websocket and one named servo-websocket. Both of them reference this repository as their repository.

• The crates are seemingly identical in their documentation.
• The websocket crate has cyderize as owner, which is the same user as this repo is under.
• The websocket crate has existed much longer.
• The servo-websocket crate has a newer published version, but with a lower version number than the latest websocket version.

Are there any differences between the crates? why do both exist? and which one should one typically use?

servo-websocket is an older version used in servo with some hotfixes that they needed to be in crates.io that could not be merged and published in time to meet their schedule (from what I understand). Now as far as I'm aware all of those fixes (and more features) have been added to this crate.

Ok. So anyone, except Servo, should use the websocket crate then. Everything I wanted to know has been answered :)
