brook 7b143976cd R-promises: initial commit
Provides fundamental abstractions for doing asynchronous programming
in R using promises. Asynchronous programming is useful for allowing a
single R process to orchestrate multiple tasks in the background while
also attending to something else. Semantics are similar to
'JavaScript' promises, but with a syntax that is idiomatic R.
