Congrats on the announcement. Templar looks like a great project.

Re AMQP, I want to mention that our Zurl project does something similar, but with ZeroMQ. It leads to some interesting possibilities: http://blog.fanout.io/2014/02/18/fun-with-zurl-the-http-webs...

Zurl is not an HTTP proxy though, but a ZeroMQ gateway. Templar with async responses would be much more generally useful to HTTP developers.

I agree, async responses are a great tool. It's a question of figuring out a good way of delivering them back to the client. Another option is a long poll endpoint within Templar that it can deliver a stream of responses on. AMQP is an easy option because it keeps Templar simple.
