[zeromq-dev] Eben Moglen's LibrePlanet 2010 Keynote

[Peter Alexander]

Yes. This along with net-neutrality concerns, are very troublesome.

Ever since I read Martin's post, the word "federation" has been stuck in my
mind. This one word accurately describes part of the vision I have for my
data "laboratory" project.

And naturally, thanks to 0mq it makes a federation of component resources
trivial.
