Hello,

A while ago at EuroPython, Mikeal Rogers and I talked about Deferreds
and how they don't really depend on the rest of Twisted. Later, Mikeal
made a branch that extracted Deferred out of the rest of Twisted, and
I contributed a patch to make it more correct.

You can find the latest release at:
�http://pypi.python.org/pypi/deferred/0.2

I've also made a project for it on Launchpad:
�https://launchpad.net/deferred

So you can get the code with 'bzr branch lp:deferred'. Mikeal is
maintaining the official trunk branch on Github.

I haven't heard anything about it on this list, so I thought I'd
mention to see what you all think and whether we should do anything
about it.

I think this is a good idea, except you didn't mention anything about
the plan for keeping this separate codebase synchronized with Twisted
development. �I hope the plan isn't to allow it to become out of date.

Well, I don't know if there's a plan per se. I'm personally not
intending to maintain the code.

Hm.  Is Mikeal?  Is he on this list?
However, if I were the maintainer, I think that I would like Twisted
to depend on this code, dropping its own Deferred implementation.

It would be pretty neat to be able to do that. I don't think it will happen unless someone is actively working towards it, though.
