I found almost by accident in the release nots for mcollective 2.2.3 :
The STOMP adapter will not be maintained past this release series, we now issue 
deprecation warnigns
...
2012/02/12      Deprecate the stomp connector   19146

And the ticket is: (9 days old, so not from 2012)
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19146

The release notes for the developpement branches are not better, they talk 
about the same ticket.

So it was decided 9 days agos by a single guy to remove the stomp connector 
from the production branch of mcollective. But when I googled about 
'http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19146', I found nothing. No ticket about 
the rational for that, no warning for users.

All the documentation talks about installing this connector.

What a strange communication. The connector is not a small feature to change, I 
must recheck and re test a lot of things, talks to the security peoples about 
openning new holes in the firewall. What about peoples using a stomp only 
message broker ?

You should have at least changed the documentation before, as the official 
requirement for Mcollective on (at least) Redhat are wrong :
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/mcollective/reference/basic/gettingstarted_redhat.html

Requirements
We try to keep the requirements on external Gems to a minimum, you only need:

        • A Stomp server, tested against ActiveMQ
        • Ruby
        • Rubygems
        • Ruby Stomp Client
