There is no logical step except to solve real problems in the simplest plausible way. The protocol does in fact support identity exchange for all socket types but what are the semantics in XSUB/XPUB? In ROUTER, it's used to route replies. I'm sceptical of extending pub/sub much further since it breaks the scalability of the pattern but as we've said often, if it's something you want to make, send a patch. -Pieter _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
