Yes. Almost exclusively done by the HornetQ team (going by the commit logs and 
the team page at HornetQ’s website).

All hard work and looks awesome. Impressive effort. What bothers me is the we 
part. The we isn’t the ActiveMQ community as a whole, it’s the formerly HornetQ 
community subset. A shocking lack of diversity on the people front, not the 
code front.

I’m still a big fan of things going exactly where you and others want them to. 
I’m just not happy with the process so far and the distinct teams working on 5 
vs Artemis.

The HornetQ folks have done some awesome work.

Some wonder because there is direct benefit to RedHat in this (not that that’s 
evil or even wrong) and everyone seems to pretending there isn’t. Supporting 
one MQ vs two is a win, planned or not. RedHat is a company I admire with many 
employees I consider friends, all of whom speak highly of the company (I don’t 
know of any other company with so many happy employees). So someone can ignore 
my points and claim I’m just anti RedHat or some other utter bullshit but it’d 
be just that.

In the meantime I have to go put my sys admin hat on (and it fits poorly) and 
bang on my Centos (Thanks RH!) test servers.
