Hello,

I did not find this on Dispatch website : I'd like to know if Dispatch use Scala 2.10 futures/promises or another implementation ? If not do you plan on moving to Scala 2.10 implementation ?

Thank you,

Matthieu

Hi Matthieu, it's more a question of interfaces than implementations.
When Scala 2.10 is released it will provide a standard interface for
futures, which the scala-lib and other libraries can build off of. Since
this interface does not exist in currently released versions of Scala,
it is not implemented by any released versions of Dispatch.

When the release comes, we'll find a way to implement this interface
without losing compatibility with other widely used versions of Scala.

Nathan
