Hello all,
I have been prodded by the members of #twisted into rewriting the
Deferred documentation. You can check out the plan at this
ticket:
http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/3943
Comments would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Edward
P.S. If you reply on the mailing list, please CC me.

You can view an initial draft of the rewrite here:

For reference, this is the planned outline (X means done, ? means
almost done):
X Synchronous to Asynchronous: The Method to the Madness
X Convert synchronous code to asynchronous code
X Why asynchro

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
asynchronou
Thanks! I've updated the docs accordingly.
Cheers,
Edward
