MQ in this case means Message queue, its simply a software pattern
a way of handling tasks in a scalable way. The broker in this case is
the software that provides that pattern (RabbitMQ)

The way you are doing it right now in version 1.0.2 is broken, due to
the changes in Django. You will not be able to release messages on
a remote machine (you will keep getting 403 error codes)

The way it is implemented now is much more efficient.
