OXES, TAPIRS AND STTPS
summary
Prototype concurrency library built on Project Loom and Scala 3 that demonstrates fork‑join, racing (examples complete in about 1s), and a Go‑like channels implementation with channels buffer size 1 and a transform primitive that fuses multiple mappings into a single virtual thread. Examples run successfully but performance is unbenchmarked, error propagation and interruption semantics remain unsettled, channels return Either for done/errors, integration with Futures needs a .get bridge, and the project is released under Apache-2 license.
