4.2 feature parity
Based on libzmq 3.2.5.
So when will this be in line with main ZeroMQ, that it 4.2 as of Nov 2016?
That's a difficult question to answer with certainty. I think it will definitely be a while unless contribution activity to this project increases. I've been trying to help where I can, but there are a lot of gaps in my knowledge of how ZMQ/JMQ work.
Maybe a good first step to feature parity with ZMQ 4.2.0 would be reviewing the spec and coming up with a list of tasks / features to implement, and filing them as separate issues in this repo.
Off-hand, I know that we will need to implement ZMTP 3.0, for which there is already an issue: #59 I'm not sure what other features have been thought about / worked on.
We are now based on ZMQ 4.1.7, which is a good deal closer to 4.2.0.
Action needed: determine what was changed/added from 4.1.7 to 4.2.0, and add it to JeroMQ.
A lot.
With no priority on the list:
- internal heartbeat system (my preferred)
- new sockets (thread safe, in DRAFT mode)
- more monitoring events ...
In a broader perspective, we will never achieve feature parity anyway if PGM, TIPC, NORM protocols are not implemented, as well as SOCKS, GSSAPI handling (it's a non-exhaustive list)
