I would like to *guarantee* that pause() pauses immediately in node 0.8. Most of the time it pauses immediately anyway, and it's a huge PITA dealing with the remaining edge cases where a data event might happen after a pause() call. If people really like the old situation we could make the old behavior optional, e.g. `stream.pause(allowData=false)`. -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
