Well, I have no special means. Volunteers would be one or more people
interested in improving (lib)curl in general or with oauth support in
particular. We've developed curl like this since at least 1998 and it has
worked so far, I don't think oauth is different.

A primary motivator would be for people and companies that use (lib)curl to
access twitter when they drop support for Basic, as then they will need to
either switch to another tool or make curl do the job with oauth instead.
(IIRC, I haven't really investigated the details myself.)
