Take a look at the readme:<br>

"bindings made with the empty string "" as their binding<br>
key, which receive presence messages, but do not<br>
produce them; and bindings made with any other binding key,<br>
which produce presence messages but do not receive them."<br></blockquote><div><br>Also, remember that queues can bind to the same exchange more than once! So it's perfectly acceptable for some queue to bind twice to a presence-exchange, once with key "" (in order to *receive* presence messages) and again with key "myname" (in order to *issue* a presence message).<br>
<br>The reason it is the way it is is so that asymmetrical situations can be cooked up on demand. Binding twice is one easy way of producing a symmetrical situation.<br><br>Regards,<br>� Tony<br><br>
