Since David Ingham has just become a proud father and is spending
time with family, I will do the chiming.

Microsoft's efforts are actually focused towards the qpid/cpp branch of
the source code.  In addition to the cmake and installation work that
Steve Huston has recently done, there is ongoing work to provide a
persistence layer for the C++ broker on Windows.

Microsoft is also using the Qpid C++ code as a base for client
support on Windows.  There is work in progress to provide a .NET WCF
Channel that is layered on top of the qpidclient.dll and
qpidcommon.dll libraries, with support for both XML Infoset and binary
encoded message formats and providing an associated resource manager
for single and multi-phase transaction support.  We are hopeful that
this WCF Channel design will gel sufficiently in the very near future
(a few weeks?) to be able to provide a detailed outline and fledgling
code for review and comment by the Qpid community.

Subject: Re: .Net client lib status

Julien,

Thanks for sending a reminder about your Jira/patch.  You are using the
right process, we were just a bit slow on the uptake.  I'll take a look
at that issue.

Regarding the .Net client in general... It's my understanding that there
are some contributors at Microsoft that are working on this part of the
code but I don't know what the status of that work is.  Maybe somebody
who knows will chime in.

Regards,

-Ted
