I'd like for the observable community to finally settle on a minimal common interface (like Promises/A+ and later ES6 promises did) for observables. Maybe https://github.com/zenparsing/es-observable

Then maybe cycle.js could come with a more minimal implementation rather than having to bring in a library with a gigantic footprint and 100+ operators (https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/RxJS/blob/master/doc/...)

Awesome, most.js was exactly what I was hoping for! Still, it would be best if all those operators were a separate library dependant on a single common interface (using ES7 bind operator for nice chainability maybe?)

That's how RxJS 5 is set up, fwiw.

Oh, cool. I think I'm finally sold on RxJS then. My only remaining beef with cycle.js is that components behave so differently from DOM nodes (which are not treated the same way as components), but I guess I can still give it a try.
