[JBoss-dev] Re: JBossMQ in JBoss5

[Andrig T Miller]

Okay.  Makes perfect sense.

We should start a discussion on what things customers are doing with
JBossMQ that are barriers to moving to JBoss Messaging.  This is very
important for the messaging project to understand.

Also, we will still need to make sure that any feature enhancements to
JBossMQ are also put into JBoss Messaging.

Thanks.
