0MQ 0.6 now available - supports OpenVMS

0MQ 0.6 is now available, and includes support for OpenVMS Integrity. Download and build instructions can be found here: http://www.zeromq.org/area:download-v06#toc2. The software also works fine on OpenVMS Alpha, however a couple of minor changes may be required to some of the build procedures - if you would like to use the software on Alpha, please let us know.

We are currently getting latencies in the 230 to 480 microsecond range (loopback interface), so room for improvement, but probably not a bad start given that that no platform-specific optimization of the code or system tuning has been done.
