I am feeling upset actually. I think I never posted anything in all those sync related threads, but this thread tipped it for me.
You know the what's the best way to kill something great? To add features that destroy its identity. The moment you add things like sync to node you blur the message, node.js becomes fuzzy, neither fish nor meat, impossible to explain in one sentence. Even worse you complicate things enormously for all the newbies that we need to bring to the platform to make it really succeed. Node needs to cross the chasm, and this is not helping, and I am sick of discussing the same stuff over and over again. My 2 cents and I apologize if I offended anyone.
