I've been trying to figure out an intelligent way of timing out deferreds.
No, a deferred is just a chain of callbacks -- it doesn't really make sense to time out a chain of callbacks. You need to time out the *source* operation that is planning on eventually calling the deferred. The process of killing the source operation ought to additionally cause the deferred's errback to be called. James
