I am trying to figure out how to best get RabbitMQ to interop with both 
Qpid and OpenAMQ. As you may have seen from the other messages, we've 
made some tweaks to get interop with Qpid M1 to work, and will release 
those shortly.

The question is, if we move RabbitMQ to 0-9 in order to get interop with 
OpenAMQ, how do we maintain interop with Qpid?

Are we going to have to have code that supports both 0-8 and 0-9 and 
picks the right one during connection negotiation? That is certainly 
possible, but it is quite a bit of work that I'd rather avoid.

Matthias.
