Ah, so I cannot just use any Java library that performs IO if I have to get quasar's benefits.

Correct, but we'll provide implementations for the most popular IO APIs (NIO, REST services, web sockets, JDBC etc.) so it is a limitation, but I think it's a small one.

Once the documentation is complete you'll know how to transform any callback-based asynchronous call into a fiber-blocking one, so you could integrate your own libraries with Quasar. It's very-very simple.
