How does this compare to chanl?

[rpav]

It's massively simpler. Also (as I recall) chanl lacks a way to block with timeouts. This does not focus around a large API with extensible backend and threading; rather the ability to quickly create, use, and dispose of channels. The few times I've needed channels, I found chanl to be heavier than I needed. (Also I recall there being a yet-unfixed critical bug.)
