Oops, more questions.  Assume I've created a queue, bound it to an
exchange with some keys, and started a consumer on it.  If I want to
bind on yet another key do I need to cancel the consumer first, or can
I just keep issuing queue_bind at arbitrary times?

Also, is there a nicely-formatted non-xml version of amqp0-8.xml somewhere?

Thanks,
