Hi all,
I am planning to use the concurrent-ruby gem in a new project. On concurrent-ruby project page (in github) the README file enlist Actor class, while the wiki page mention Actress instead. When i looked at the code, Actor is same as actress. So, i was wondering whats the recommendation here? Is the README file stale?

thanks in advance

Actor.

Our actor implementation originally began as a gem called Actress. At the time we had a very simple actor implementation that we deprecated in lieu of Actress. The first step was to deprecate the old Actor and merge in Actress. Next, we removed the old actor and aliased Actress to Actor. In a future release we will remove Actress and just keep Actor.

Best regards,
Jerry

Thanks for remanding us about the old wiki pages. Wiki is out of dates and it's been replaced by YARD documentation. I've disable the wiki on github.
