one confusing thing for newbies like me:

exports.get_list = function ( cb) {
                rclient.smembers("list", function(err, members) {
                        members.forEach(function(member){
                                console.log(member)
                        })
                        cb(null, 'lst')
                })
}

the function(member) for 'forEach' is callback, right? then why,
cb(null,'lst') will wait until the loop is over?
