I'd like to suggest async-mesos-rs, an asynchronous client for Apache Mesos scheduler events, that I've written.
Suggestion: noisy_float.
It was mentioned in the (quite popular) Reddit thread after the last Chucklefish game.
You know what, I was actually unaware of noisy_float, that actually looks like almost exactly what I wanted. It even implements all the important num_traits traits, including the Float trait. I actually wish I knew about this before, thank you for showing me that!

I want to nominate crowbook.
Crowbook's aim is to allow you to write a book in Markdown without worrying about formatting or typography, and let the program generate HTML, PDF and EPUB output for you.

For next time I would like to nominate tempus_fugit, a tiny library to easily measure the wall clock time of any expression. In addition, it can also be used to trivially display the collected data in human-readable form.

Hi @JoeyAcc, the crate link for tempus_fugit is lacking in documentation. Also, there are no links to source code. Is it open-source?
I would like to nominate shiplift - a library for talking to the docker daemon (which I'm doing a major overhaul for currently).

Yes, it has a BSD-style license.
I'll update the documentation when I can, likely that will be this weekend.
Just a note on etiquette, it's nicer to make clear when nominating one's own work, e.g. by saying "I'd like to nominate (my own) crate some_crate... ".
Doing so avoids the appearance of advertising, but still allows authors to spotlight their (very useful!) work.
For announcing projects, major releases, etc, we of course also have the #announcements category, where all forms of self-advertisement are allowed and expected

Have to say svgbob looks pretty cool ( https://github.com/ivanceras/svgbobrus ) unless we've had it already for crate of the week? Svg images in rust docs generated from text would be a beautiful thing.

unidecode converts text to ASCII very well. Edit: I've forked it and added Emoji support!.
