Hi, * This is the time I've heard "the one who's feeding the channel is the one in charge of closing it" -- previously, my channel code was fairly ad-hoc and agressive (since I need to kill many (go-loop [msg (<! ... )] (when msg ...)) blocks).
* I still feel this breaks the "conveyor belt" metaphor -- when a conveyor belt shuts down, it's understandable that we after we take what's on the belt, in future takes, we get nothing. However, when putting items on a stopped conveyor belt, messages should not just *poof* vanish into the void. :-) * This existing semantics makes debugging annoying (perhaps this is due to my lack of skill). When something should be happening, and nothing is happening, I'm basically going around hunting for "where did I do a put on a closed channel", whereas if it threw an exception of some form, it'd be easier to handle then this "silent fail."
