Just a question that might be extremely obvious (but not to me). What was wrong with qpid, rabbitmq, activemq, zeromq, ${your favorite queue here} that required marconi?
Is the integration lacking with keystone, was it for the need to give tenants a SQS solution, both?? Sorry if this is already answered, just wondering your thoughts.
