No it’s not about the same named song by Soulfly, (which incidentally does contains F# notes) but a return to thread synchronisation primitives and their asynchronous counterparts. We are going to be looking at an asynchronous version of the ManualResetEvent. This was recently covered by Stephen Toub on the pfx team blog. We will be taking a slightly different view on this as we will be using asynchronous workflows which will give us nice idiomatic usage[...]
