v1.0 roadmap?

[gt3]

I've been following this project for past few months now. I'm sure there are others like me in the community who would also like to see this project gain momentum and finally achieve production-ready status.

Let's start by making a list of tasks on the critical path to <<1.0>> so we can better focus our resources on shipping out a stable product first. I'd like to ask primary contributors - @ubolonton and @hung-phan to guide us in defining the necessary scope of work.

New feature development that includes, API extensions and new language features, should be stalled/deferred until we have addressed all edge cases and shortcomings preventing this project from reaching the CSP standard.

I am pretty new around here but I know that if there is one project that deserves more attention in the Javascript ecosystem, it is this one and I'm excited to learn. So how can I help?

Happy New Year! :)

1. putAsync/takeAsync should return a Promise #109
2. Refactor channel and process implementation
3. Implement promise channel
4. Handle error in channel

I'll also add that we need to fix code styling and perhaps take another look at eslint rules that are currently applied (biggest one on my mind is ";") :)

New feature development that includes, API extensions and new language features, should be stalled/deferred until we have addressed all edge cases and shortcomings preventing this project from reaching the CSP standard.

I was referring to these types of issues:

const ch = csp.chan();

// Async puts accept a callback too
csp.putAsync(ch, 42, function(){ console.log("Just put 42"); });
csp.putAsync(ch, 43, function(){ console.log("One more"); });

csp.takeAsync(ch, function(value) { console.log("Got ", value); })
//=> "Got 42"
//=> "Just put 42"
csp.takeAsync(ch, function(value) { console.log("Got ", value); })
//=> "Got 43"
//=> "One more"

One of the first code snippets from docs does not produce expected output!

Thanks @gt3, checking.

Got  42
Got  43
Just put 42
One more

🤔

Technically the rendezvous should work as described in the docs.

I believe this is a drawback of using callbacks. We might need something lazier?

I checked 0.5 with the same results. @ubolonton ?
