I guess we do agree on the queuing pattern.
:-) Calling the queuing conduit a consumer gave me
an impression that the message distribution from the queue was left out
to applications behind the consumer and ordinary pub/sub
would be sufficient to cover all
messaging.
I think we're converging. I didn't mean that an ordinary consumer
would be responsible for distributing messages from a queue. I had a
scenario more like brokering in mind, where the distributor plays the role of
a consumer from the point of view of the NotificationProducer.
Agreed. Interestingly, that's exactly my use case too. It will be
great if we can model this case the same way as other delivery
patterns. My point is whether such a distributor or queuing pattern
is used should not be totally transparent at the WSN level.
