Having played around with pyczmq a little bit for a few hours, I'm
starting to wonder if that's really the right way to wrap CZMQ. My two
concerns are 1) import-time overhead and 2) the C-style interface (not
OO, un-Pythonic).
I note that pyzmq already solves both of these problems: it's much
faster to import than pyczmq, and it exposes a nice Pythonic interface
to the 0mq core API.
Would it make sense for pyzmq to wrap CZMQ as well?
