[rabbitmq-discuss] Multiple Bindings to the Default Exchange

[David Legg]

Yer, I thought so. Thanks Simon.


Yes, it is the default exchange I'm talking about. You can't just
arbitrarily bind a queue to the default exchange with a routing key like
you can with others. Alas, changing the publishers is not going to be
possible right now.

Firehose looks like the only way I'll be able to approach this.
