Interesting.

Can you provide some more thinking on this?  Do you mean the RabbitMQ
codegen and if so, how would you split it out and where?  What I mean
is: what is the best way to socialise the code.

JInterface has been mentioned.  Again, feel free to continue this line
of thought on the list.  It is definitely interesting.  We would
really like to understand management better.

BTW on JRuby - this mboi:
