Maybe I'm describing a separate project, but a fault tolerant and
scalable queue would be more interesting to me than something like
RabbitMQ with a REST interface. There don't seem to be any reasonable
open-source implementations of distributed queues, but they're
available and widely used in $closed_source_clouds.
So.. I don't know, I guess I'd rather have seen a discussion on what
sort of queue service should be built before stuff like implementation
language were sussed out. :) And that probably has to be informed by
what people need, which I don't really know how we're supposed to
analyze.
