Existing usage in the wild?

Hi people :-)

Just a small question from me. I'm eager to bootstrap SOCKS support in HTTPX/HTTPCore back up from previous work (@yeraydiazdiaz's encode/httpcore#51, also encode/httpcore#187).

I thought URLLib3 had migrated its SOCKS support to use socksio, but looking at the GitHub repo there I'm not able to find a reference to socksio anymore.

Is this package depended upon by a project yet? I'm happy to lend a hand with maintenance if we integrate this into HTTPCore. Just curious what the status is.

This project isn't a dependency of urllib3 or any project I believe. urllib3 likely won't switch unless async support is added. I'm fine with whatever direction you think is best for the project, I consider it mostly complete for the cases of proxying HTTP requests.
