been looking into this recently. it seems like a lot of the bindings haven't been maintained in 2+ years, but the pure java implementation JeroMQ is very active and convenient to use (https://github.com/zeromq/jeromq)

That's a fair assumption and accurate for a lot of the bindings. It is true that there are a lot of bindings for ZeroMQ and many were weekend projects for a single project.

For me, if there hasn't been any activity for several years yet it's still commonly used, I assume it's stable.

i find that there are at least a couple dozen issues/defects that haven't been addressed, and it doesn't seem like they're going to be
