In my experience, most people who want "synchronous" behavior are
willing to put up with "wait forever," especially when asynchronous
behavior is already available.

In short, +1 for "push 'wait forever' soonest."

Anybody who's got a Secret Base, Hidden in a Hollowed-Out Mountain,
Making Grand Plans While Stroking a Long-Haired Cat[1], should please
to update their public repository, or create a public repository if it
doesn't already exist, and in either case keep it current.

Cheers,
David

[1]  While the Hollowed-Out Mountain trick worked back in the 60s,
it's gotten a little trite.  The cool kids are keeping things pretty
public these days when they plan to go public.
