This is what sparked my interest in F# originally, and I love it. For the first time ever I'm willing to write async code regularly in C#. I can't wait for something like this to make its way to python (for twisted) or JavaScript (for node).

It looks like this functionality has been ported to node, have a look: https://github.com/koush/node/wiki/%22async%22-support-in-no...

See this comment from MostAwesomeDude in a different thread:

Perhaps it would be interesting to see how it was done in Twisted: http://http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twiste...

We'd like to think that the C# guys were looking our way when they came up with async/await, but there's no proof. :3

I'm one of the authors of a Python framework called monocle for doing async programming in this style. It works with twisted and tornado. http://github.com/saucelabs/monocle
