@bascule is there a way to create a Future and kill it if either it takes too long or you just want to abort what it is doing?
@j2h Future#value takes a timeout, unfortunately that doesn't kill the future. Maybe there needs to be Future#kill?

@bascule that would be nice! why doesn't timeout kill a future though? -
@j2h also you can imagine in DCell a future timing out due to a network partition. Killing it wouldn't be reliable... -
@bascule sure, makes sense, if a kill method is added to Future then I can do the killing myself if timeout is exceeded -
@j2h yeah, first you'd need a kill method though -
@bascule yep, maybe you or@halorgium can help with that ;)
