You are right to be annoyed, it's a poor state of affairs.

There are moves to improve the situation with a new release of the 0-9
protocol that removes the "work in progress" and fixes bugs and
removes unused areas, and can be cleanly supported by most vendors.
iMatix and FastMQ will implement this, as far as I know so will Rabbit
Technologies, CohesiveFT, and the Java Qpid group.  I expect that
those who have chosen the 0-10 path will stick with it.

If you wish to express your impatience with the lack of clear AMQP
interoperability, don't hesitated to tell the AMQP working group at
amqp-pmc at lists.amqp.org.
