Matthias, do you want to say anything in the August newsletter about this effort, or is that still premature?

Creation of a new SIG "Messaging"

Hereby, I'm asking for comments about founding a new SIG to handle messaging stacks in CentOS. We currently have in CentOS RabbitMQ handling AMQP 0.9, and QPID, which provides messaging using AMQP 1.0. There are also packages supporting Kafka, but not Kafka itself.

Collaborating SIGs would be the Cloud and the Opstools SIGs. Both would be consuming built packages produced by the Messaging SIG.

We also briefly took into consideration to incorporate the newly proposed SIG into one of the others. At the end, messaging is different than Cloud or Operational tools. It doesn't really fit. The best solution seemed to us to have another SIG.

If there are any questions or comments, please don't hesitate to reply to the list, and let's find the best proposal here.
