One of the problems with most OSS products seems to be the lack of good documentation. Recently, I wanted to get some simple producer/consumer programs working in PHP and using a JMS server. I choose ActiveMQ JMS server because of the ease of install, multi language support and active OSS community but had to spend a couple of hours to looks for the scattered documentation to actually get it to work right.

So to save time for the next person who tried to do this, I have started compiling a page describing the configuration files and example programs I created. The project page is available at http://fallenempires.net/activemq_stomp. I I’ll probably contribute this back to the stomp wiki once it is complete.
