Hi Maatary,

STM is considered as a failed experiment (see for example Microsoft’s reasoning 
<http://www.infoq.com/news/2010/05/STM-Dropped> for removing it from .Net) and 
it was never compatible with distributed computing, therefore we are 
concentrating on Akka’s core competence which is distribution—modeled by 
Actors. Agents are still there because they are a useful (local) abstraction, 
but keep in mind that they are neither resilient nor scalable.

Regards,

Roland
