[Python-Dev] Python needs a standard asynchronous return object

2010-09-10 Thread James Yonan
I'd like to propose that the Python community standardize on a "deferred" object for asynchronous return values, modeled after the well-thought-out Twisted Deferred class. With more and more Python libraries implementing asynchronicity (for example Futures -- PEP 3148), it's crucial to have a
