An experimental library for promises and futures for Go. At this point it's just a test bed for some ideas that have been rolling around my head for a couple of weeks. Go's `chan` is really quite adequate most of the time and so explicit promises and futures aren't always needed. But some cases, such as trying to prevent `close()` multiple times on a chan, can be more awkward than they should be. Promises and futures could (hopefully) help alleviate this awkwardness. I'm still somewhat new to Go (about 5 months) so I'm still getting up to speed with its idioms. Feedback is very welcome!
