[rabbitmq-discuss] [ANN] Release v0.1.0 of Bunny a synchronous Ruby AMQP client

Alexis,

I emailed Amos (carrot) and Aman (amqp) to tell them what I was doing  
as I've used a whole lot of their code. Those guys have done some  
impressive work, I've just chopped it around a bit to suit my  
purposes so all credit goes to them.

There are two things that I'm thinking about now -

1. The codegen stuff that parses the json AMQP spec could do with  
it's own project. I'm thinking that it could play a similar role to  
the one that Rack does for Ruby webservers. Maybe someone's already  
doing that.

2. I heard mention of getting at the rabbitmqctl type of  
functionality via JInterface. I mean the 'list_queues',  
'list_exchanges' sort of things. I don't just want to put a wrapper  
around rabbitmqctl. I'm no Java man, but maybe we can do something  
with JRuby in this area. I've done a rudimentary test of Bunny in  
JRuby 1.2.0 and it seems to stand up (test specs and examples run).

Anyway, thanks for your interest and comments.

Regards,

Chris
