Re: [jdf-dev] Spring WebsphereMQ quickstart

We actually had a debate internally on the applicability of this sample code as a quickstart - for exactly the reasons that Sande lists. I originally wrote the code in my own testing project, but after several customer requests, we thought to do it in quickstart format. I suspect that this might be a continuing theme. Use the quickstart format for customer interactions, even if the specific topic may not warrant inclusion on the main site. Certainly, let me know how I can improve the instructions.
