Some questions about events and promises

What are some alternatives?
When comparing iterum and async you can also consider the following projects:
observable-to-promise - Awesome Observable related stuff - An Observable is a collection that arrives over time.
Bluebird - :bird: :zap: Bluebird is a full featured promise library with unmatched performance.
suspend - Callback-free control flow for Node using ES6 generators.
each-async - Async concurrent iterator (async forEach)
zone - Flow control and error handling for Node.js
