Anyone played with or looked at ActiveMQ? (http://activemq.org)? From their blurb:
"Apache ActiveMQ is a fast open source JMS 1.1 Message Fabric which supports clustering, peer networks, discovery, TCP, SSL, multicast, persistence, XA and integrates seamlessly into J2EE 1.4 containers, light weight containers and any Java Virtual Machine together with having a host of Cross Language Clients." ...yeah...well... whatever. I've been tasked with trying to get this beast compiled to native binary using gcj (don't want to ship the JDK with our box). And not being a java person, I'm lacking the understanding of the Java alphabet soup... Given what we really need to get done (queue up messages and send them around - oh, and they don't want to use smtp) it seems like we could roll something in Ruby that would be a lot simpler and get the job done. This is not exactly my area of expertise; anyone with more experience with this sort of thing have any idea how difficult of a task that would be?
