Hi all,

We are happy to announce that 0MQ  ("ZeroMQ") project was officially 
launched today!

* Our mission with 0MQ is to build the fastest messaging ever. The way 
to get performance is to optimise the whole software and hardware stack 
together. So, we are developing 0MQ closely with major hardware firms.

* 0MQ is in early stages of development, but it is already very fast. 
We're getting 25 microseconds end-to-end latencies and 2.8 million 
messages per second today.

* 0MQ is completely free GPL-licensed software written in C++.

* 0MQ is intended to by fully AMQP-compliant. Some additions will be 
done to support peer-to-peer communication between clients and multicast.

* 0MQ is built by community and for community. Everyone can join the 
development, everone can use the product.

For more information have a look at 0MQ website: www.zeromq.org

Enjoy!
Martin
