Thanks. Looks like it's improving. I've got more points to critique now,
but that's only because there's more meat to the tutorial now :).

Thanks! I've updated the docs accordingly.

I have updated my draft here:
http://ezyang.com/twisted/defer2.html
The most notable change is I've removed the section "From Synchronous to
Asynchronous". I believe (and I think other people agree with me) that
this is an important topic to cover, but it's really *hard* to teach

This is a great first draft! Very substantial. I really appreciate you
working on this.
Now I will proceed to rip it to shreds by way of giving you some feedback,

I agree, that's a really nicely done document. It would be good to extend
it, moving into a description and explanation of deferreds.

I agree. I've come to think it's partially a fault of using normal text
based editors. Those fit the programming models from 30 years ago well,

At some point I realized that it helps to realize that code that looks
synchronous really isn't at all. Probably all the programming that almost
all of us will ever do
