@annevk Cancelation of promises is a painful topic. This is what I have to say at the moment https://github.com/kriskowal/gtor/blob/master/cancelation.md …. Forever pending is ok.

@kriskowal@annevk Cool. My other concern is use cases where a generic promise utility doesn't get the notification that a promise is dead. -
@astronouth7303@annevk To be clear, I believe cancelation effecting a rejection is fine too. -
@kriskowal@annevk I like that better, if only so that downstream processes can clean up, resolve, etc. By smell, rejecting is better. -
@astronouth7303@annevk Be sure to read those posts I linked. There is a tension between unicast and broadcast over the robustness concern. -
