[Twisted-Python] Twisted vs jQuery Deferreds (was Re: RPC design questions)

I have collected the Deferreds from

Nevow
MochiKit
Closure
jQuery
(and Twisted)

here

https://github.com/oberstet/jdeferred/tree/master/others

for convenient comparison.

I'd be interested in baking a JS Deferred which

- replicates the Twisted Deferred in semantics and syntax (API) as closely as possible
- has no external dependencies (totally self contained)
- contains only this: a JS Deferred

Anyone else?

I know this is kinda OT for this list, but it could serve Twisted indirectly: by propagating
it's mature, sane Deferred concept/terminology instead of half-baked, flawned others.

Cheers,
Tobias
