Bug#862809: ITP: node-set-immediate-shim -- Simple setImmediate shim



Package: wnpp

  Description     : Simple setImmediate shim

 setImmediate allows scripts to yield to the browser, executing a  given
operation asynchronously, in a manner that is typically  more efficient
and consumes less power than the usual setTimeout(..., 0) pattern. This
library provides a simple setImmediate shim.
 .
 This library is a dependency of readdirp. Even though we have setimmediate
 packaged, patching readdirp to use it is more work.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

This situation was discussed in the pkg-javascript-devel list and
packaging it was considered the better option.
