Thanks, Art, for chatting with me today and digging into things. For the record, I personally consider the *general* matter of status for NMS and CMS as resolved - the website will stay generally the same in the high-level presentation for these components. Thanks, all, who contributed to clarify the situation.
However, I do think it's worth digging into the specifics of many of the NMS providers that Art has laid out here. Art asked about the XMS, WCF, AMQP, & ZMQ providers. I would add MQTT & EMS. The MQTT provider has never been released and the EMS provider was last release almost a decade ago. Does anybody have any knowledge of where these providers stand? Are they functional? Are they widely used?
