Hello Lynton,

A couple of suggestions:

1) I have begun a project to integrate the RabbitMQ Java client
library into OSGi, providing exchanges and queues as Services etc.
Currently this provides a simplistic command-line oriented UI via the
OSGi console, but it could be used as the basis for a richer GUI. The
source code is on Github: http://github.com/njbartlett/rabbitosgi

2) The Eclipse Communications Framework (ECF) project is building all
sorts of back-end and front-end features for both synchronous and
asynchronous comms in Eclipse. I would be surprised if they did not
have at least something in incubation relating to AMQP.
http://www.eclipse.org/ecf

3) HermesJMS is a generic management console for JMS. It appears to
work with QPID, perhaps using the JMS adapter API.

I think developing some simple views in Eclipse to create messages and
view queues would make an interesting -- and not too challenging --
project for somebody learning Eclipse development.

Regards,
Neil
