Looks like we've got a solution to the amqp spec license issue. We can
simply use the BSD licensed file here:
http://www.amqp.org/confluence/download/attachments/720900/amqp0-8.stripped.xml?version=1&modificationDate=1250523131000

I'll put a comment to this effect on Lucio's merge proposal so he can swap
in this file and we'll be good to go.

Wow, thanks. I just had a look at graphite and it looks really cool!

Absolutely, in fact, we're using the BSD spec files ourselves. We even
tweaked them a bit, adding support for queue_unbind, which is
supported by RabbitMQ, but not part of the official 0.8 spec. I can
send you our specs if you intend to use that feature.

Cheers.
