I skimmed the article but this seems heavily influenced by Quasar http://docs.paralleluniverse.co/quasar/ but doesn't make any mention of it.

I have some experience with it and I found it to be a very well designed and documented API. I hope to see it in the JVM someday.

The person behind it is pretty active online and does some other interesting things (the TLA+ subreddit), not sure if they are an hn reader but I hope they chime in here.

If you look at openjdk mailing list Quasar author has joined Oracle and putting this proposal.

Thank you for connecting the dots for me. The creator of Pulsar is Ron Pressler and the author of this proposal.

Ah, that explains why quasar development has been idle for a while, after the jdk9 release. I can't wait to see this in Java proper, quasar is pretty magical and I was looking forward to seeing it extended to all jvm languages transparently.
