These are the examples I remember mentioned in the talk:
- http://api.jquery.com/category/deferred-object/ (not very twistedish at all, ill-liked by the speaker) - http://mochi.github.com/mochikit/doc/html/MochiKit/Async.html (maybe not a good example, mochikit tries to be "python in JS") - http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.8/dojo/Deferred.html - https://github.com/kriskowal/q (also includes an explanation of why the author likes deferreds)
Mochikit has been dead for years.
As for the others, just because they are called "Deferred" doesn't mean they are the same thing. None of them seems to look like Twisted's Deferred abstraction.
Correction: actually, some of them do :-) I should have looked a bit better. Regards Antoine. -- Software development and contracting: http://pro.pitrou.net
