"ref_send", the ability to create a deliverable value, would be my core linkage on Q and more-so promises (as not an author)
http://waterken.sourceforge.net/ .
The background is interesting, but I'm not sure what value an association with historical context brings. I've tried other promise libraries, but stub my toe on missing capabilities I'm used to, or end up distracted with mechanics. I don't think I've ever found myself saying, gee, would that this be closer to ref_send, but then again almost all implementations happen to tack close to. So, uh, Domenic does have a more useful account of Q. Mostly here to drop some ref_send. ;)
