The only order that is necessary is one that satisfies the dependency chain. It's a simple digraph which will often come out in a different sequence, the only requirement that needs to be satisfied is the dependency ordering not the overall order. > Is there any way I can enforce an ordering? Nope. I think you need a different tool than the reactor if you don't need the dependency ordering. We could certainly make a abstract tool with a pluggable strategies for ordering. The dependency ordering strategy would be what we need to the reactor but then you could also enforce whatever ordering you wanted. I only ever thought about dependency ordering myself.
