    In what scenarios do you envision using a message broker like this as opposed to JMS/NMS or MSMQ? Besides lack of features, of course ;)

    I used it to implement a MVP pattern application to hook the view and presenter together and also to deliver messages to extensions.

    Funny, cuz that was that exact situation I may be able to use this. I currently use a an observer pattern to do this in an MVP app, where the main presenter notifies each sub presenter of a state change. Semantics aside, it is the pretty much the same thing. Had this been released a week or two earlier, I might have used it instead ;)

    This is pretty much a light weight, non-distributed messaging API…cool!

    I actually prefer the WeakEventMessageBroker extension myself. I hated the WeakEvent pattern put into the presentation framework, so I built my own. It doesn't have the delivery options like thread and UI yet, but it using weak pointers for publishing and subscribing detaching the event handling from the object lifetime. The channels and objects clean themselves up nicely.
