Okay. From what you said, it sounded like you wanted to use RabbitMQ, and not something else, such as Gearman's built-in messaging, for dispatching tasks. >> That's why I've been gathering requirements at >> https://dev.launchpad.net/Foundations/NewTaskSystem/Requirements to >> ensure we don't pursue a dead end. > > I think this is great; however it doesn't diminish the separate need for a > way > of passing messages between components. Selecting a way of passing messages is a critical part of satisfying the New Task System requirements. Celery, Gearman and raw RabbitMQ are separate messaging approaches. So out of this process, you will get a messaging solution, but I'm hesitant to use RabbitMQ for Jobs before we have selected our solution, because it may turn out to be waste. I have been assuming that dispatching tasks (e.g. Jobs, Builds) was the primary use case for RabbitMQ. You say we have a separate need for passing messages between components. Can you give me examples of ways you'd like to use RabbitMQ that aren't related to tasks?
