Eran, Cody, thanks for the suggestions! I've been aware of RabbitMQ,
ActiveMQ, and AMQP, but I'd been hoping to find a way to avoid their
intrinsic complexity. Maybe I'm just not very bright, but I don't like
the impedance mismatching between job queueing and message queuing. Or
maybe it's that I'm just rigid — when I see "message" I think about
communication, not about jobs... which is why beanstalk appeals to me.
Unfortunately my client's systems are all Windows and are likely to
remain Windows for a long time.

Thanks!
Avi
