He also asked for some kind of "throttling" mechanism (his word) to control the rate at which work was delivered from
one component to another. JMS doesn't define throttling or flow control, of course, but it's the kind of thing that JMS
might cover in the future.
It wasn't clear to me what was stopping existing JMS support in Java EE being sufficient for his purposes. Was he
looking for more control over the flow of messages (flow control, throttling, load balancing etc) or was he simply
looking for a different API? (Jurgen is welcome to join this discussion).
