<br> According to that link, Java has a module named "Concurrent" with an interface named "Future". You're proposing a module named "Futures" with a class named "Future".<br><br>
Why not name your module "concurrent"? That would eliminate the confusion with "from __future__". I don't see a problem with keeping the class name.<br><br>Plus, a "concurrent" module might be useful for things other than Futures, in the future. ;-)<br>
