+Sample code for STOMP-based Thrift clients and/or servers.
+
+Although the sample Thrift STOMP Transport is written in 
+Delphi/Pascal, it can easily serve as a starting point for 
+similar implementations in other languages.
+
+STOMP is a protocol widely supported by many messaging systems,
+such as Apache ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ and many others. In particular,
+it can be used to communicate with Service-Bus products like Rebus
+or NServiceBus, when running against a STOMP-capable MQ system.
+
+A prerequisite for this sample is the Delphi STOMP Adapter written
+by Daniele Teti (http://www.danieleteti.it/stomp-client), currently
+hosted at Google Code (http://code.google.com/p/delphistompclient).
+
+At the time of writing, the STOMP adapter does not fully support 
+binary data. Please check whether this has been fixed, otherwise 
+you have to use the JSON protocol (or to fix it on your own).
