[openamq-dev] 0MQ project launched

[Martin Sustrik]

Hi Jacobus,

Basically, there will be two ways for OpenAMQ apps to communicate with 0MQ:

1. Use existing OpenAMQ client to connect to 0MQ via AMQP connection 
(all AMQP-compliant implementations should be able to communicate in 
this way obviously). However, AMQP communication would impose some 
restrictions inherent to the protocol v0-8, v0-9 and upcoming v0-10: no 
point to point communication and no multicast.

2. We would like to provide WireAPI interface to allow existing OpenAMQ 
application to migrate seamlessly to broker-less, point-to-point and 
multicast models.

Note that 0MQ is work in progress... we are working on pt. 1 currently 
and we hope to be able to connect AMQP clients to 0MQ by version 0.2.
