Probably because it was not well integrated and no users.
Now if you have a good implementation we can package it.
To me
Object>>futureSend: aSelector at: deltaMSecs args: args
"Send a message deltaSeconds into the future (some implementations may
requires 'deltaMSecs' to be zero). Answers a Promise that will be resolved at
some time in the future. See comment in class FutureNode."
^Project current future: self send: aSelector at: deltaMSecs args: args.
Is not something I really understand.
I do not see why a project would have to do anything with promise but I'm
probably a bit dull.
