Jeff, I think you're talking about different implementation: 
https://npmjs.org/package/Deferred it's still at v0.1.1 and in fact it 
resembles jQuery's Deferred. It was published later on npm with same name 
but uppercased (Today npm wouldn't allow that ;)

For Deferred (one that opened this topic) changes are carefully described 
in https://github.com/medikoo/deferred/blob/master/CHANGES v0.1 -> v0.6 
might be a long read ;)

Answering your questions:

Exactly .promise returns something conceptually same as .promise() in 
jQuery's version

There's no when in this Deferred implementation. Same can be achieved with:

deferred(promiseOrValue).then(onsuccess, onerror);

'fail', 'always' and 'done' can be achieved with 
promise.aside: https://github.com/medikoo/deferred#aside

In general Deferred (v0.6) implementation provides solutions to many other 
use cases, so it has much more to offer. jQuery's implementation is very 
basic, it evolved on client-side where asynchronous programming is not as 
complex as in Node.js

Cheers!
