+
+#### I/O
+
+There will be two API layers for I/O:
+1. A low-level abstraction with (for sockets) non-blocking read/writes operating
+on FDs. (Yet unspecified - but probably very similar to the unix syscalls.)
+
+2. A high-level API that will closely follow Go's I/O interfaces. The tentative
+intrefaces are outlined below:
+```ts
+interface Reader {
+	// Reader is the interface that wraps the basic Read method.
+  //
+  // Read reads up to p.byteLength bytes into p. It returns the number of bytes
+  // read (0 <= n <= p.byteLength) and any error encountered. Even if Read
+  // returns n < p.byteLength, it may use all of p as scratch space during the
+  // call. If some data is available but not p.byteLength bytes, Read
+  // conventionally returns what is available instead of waiting for more.
+  //
+  // When Read encounters an error or end-of-file condition after successfully
+  // reading n > 0 bytes, it returns the number of bytes read. It may return the
+  // (non-nil) error from the same call or return the error (and n == 0) from a
+  // subsequent call. An instance of this general case is that a Reader
+  // returning a non-zero number of bytes at the end of the input stream may
+  // return either err == EOF or err == nil. The next Read should return 0, EOF.
+  //
+  // Callers should always process the n > 0 bytes returned before considering
+  // the error err. Doing so correctly handles I/O errors that happen after
+  // reading some bytes and also both of the allowed EOF behaviors.
+  //
+  // Implementations of Read are discouraged from returning a zero byte count
+  // with a nil error, except when p.byteLength == 0. Callers should treat a
+  // return of 0 and nil as indicating that nothing happened; in particular it
+  // does not indicate EOF.
+  //
+  // Implementations must not retain p.
+  //
+  // Copied from Go https://golang.org/pkg/io/#Reader
+  async read(p: Uint8Array): [number, IOError];
+}
+
+interface Writer {
+  // Writer is the interface that wraps the basic Write method.
+  //
+  // Write writes p.byteLength bytes from p to the underlying data stream. It
+  // returns the number of bytes written from p (0 <= n <= p.byteLength) and any
+  // error encountered that caused the write to stop early. Write must return a
+  // non-nil error if it returns n < p.byteLength. Write must not modify the
+  // slice data, even temporarily.
+  //
+  // Implementations must not retain p.
+  //
+  // Copied from Go https://golang.org/pkg/io/#Writer
+  async write(p: Uint8Array): [number, IOError];
+}
+
+interface Closer {
+  // The behavior of Close after the first call is undefined. Specific
+  // implementations may document their own behavior.
+  // Copied from Go https://golang.org/pkg/io/#Closer
+  close(): IOError;
+}
+
+interface Seeker {
+  // Seek sets the offset for the next Read or Write to offset, interpreted
+  // according to whence: SeekStart means relative to the start of the file,
+  // SeekCurrent means relative to the current offset, and SeekEnd means
+  // relative to the end. Seek returns the new offset relative to the start of
+  // the file and an error, if any.
+  //
+  // Seeking to an offset before the start of the file is an error. Seeking to
+  // any positive offset is legal, but the behavior of subsequent I/O operations
+  // on the underlying object is implementation-dependent.
+  //
+  // Copied from Go https://golang.org/pkg/io/#Seeker
+  seek(offset: number, whence: number): [number, IOError];
