I prefer to think of it as "complete" not "abandoned" ;).  It still works
just as well as the day I released it.  We're still writing ES5 code in
node with callbacks.

Seriously though, Step has warts, async is fairly complicated, using
nothing but js is generally quite verbose.  There is no perfect solution
which is why I recommend people understanding how to do it themselves and
then choose something that makes sense for each use case.
