Comment on Defer: Taming asynchronous javascript with coffeescript

Comments

For extra reading material for the curious, the history of the proposed implementation of "defer" in CoffeeScript:

Part I: http://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/issues/issue/241

Part II: http://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/issues/issue/287

Part III: http://github.com/jashkenas/coffee-script/issues/issue/350

If you have a suggestion for how to handle the bits of "defer" that are still undecided, such as how to handle the "return" statement, and enforce a callback parameter, please feel free to add it to the third ticket.
