[rabbitmq-discuss] Why do we need rabbitmq-web-stomp and why not rabitmq-web-amqp (over websockets)?

[Paddy Carman]

Hi -
    I'm reading about the rabbitmq-web-stomp plugin. It seem very cool -
STOMP over Websockets connecting to AMQP backend. My questions:
* can we do AMQP over websockets directly and
* If so, why do we need STOMP?
* Is there any particular advantage of using STOMP?
* Are there performance implications in the STOM<>AMQP translation?

Thanks,
PC
