The AMQP model

I added a bit of text detailing the AMQP model. I'd like to put up a couple of points for discussion

Is the text readable for someone new to AMQP? Can it be simplified and/or clarified? Can details such as entity properties be moved to somewhere later in the text?
Is always the correct terminology used? I deliberately omitted things like sessions and tracks however.
Is everything correct?
The spec (0.10) states the queue and exchange names have the same type but speak of utf-8 only in the context of queue names. Are both naming schemas the same?

There are also critical omissions / things to do:

Failures modes / unroutable messages / accept and acquire modes / ACK. This also leads to the omission of the alternate-exchange property.
There is no differentiation between version 0.8, 0.9 and 0.10 of the spec.
Transactions.
Default exchanges and changed semantics (implicit bindings).
The text is pretty much absent of links and formatting.
More examples are needed.

The source for my description is the version 0.10 of the official specification.

Links

Why have my link to 0MQ implementation of AMQP been removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.173.41.158 (talk) 20:44, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have reinstated your edits regarding ZeroMq. It is an implementation of AMQP and thus belongs here. Ade oshineye (talk) 07:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References

Are the references adequate since links to peer reviewed articles published by the ACM and the IEEE were added?

Also originally missing was a link to the full protocol specification text, now added.

How much detail about the nuts and bolts of AMQP should be described on the Wikipedia page in order to increase the quality of the submission?

Neither the ACM Queue nor the the IEEE Internet Computing article come anywhere close to meeting the academic standards for peer review.

Is academic peer review necessary? I thought Wikipedia was all about the NPOV concerning subjects meriting inclusion. AMQP is an open protocol, with multiple implementations and references in the public domain. Is any of this in dispute? Just trying to help.. Monadic (talk) 13:04, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know that the ACM article was indeed peer reviewed by industry experts (the names were not made known to me, but I did see their commentry). As for the IEEE article, Mr Vinoski is regarded by many as distinguished in the field of middleware, especially by his work on CORBA (see "Advanced CORBA Programming with C++ (Addison-Wesley Professional Computing Series) by Michi Henning and Steve Vinoski" and "Enterprise Security With Ejb and Corba" by Bret Hartman, Donald J. Flinn, Konstantin Beznosov, and Steve Vinoski for just two examples).--Egalis (talk) 20:30, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it is correct to call AMQP an "open standard application layer", until it has been submitted to and approved by a standards body. Currently AFAIK it is not approved by any such body. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.147.7 (talk) 09:24, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
