Hi,

I came to know powerhose via planet python and I think is a fantastic idea as it allows me to use the power of zeromq but focusing in my particular problem and not so much in the communication details. I have a question regarding your plans for the library. Many times I need to send some task to all workers and then collect answers. These are typically diagnostic or maintenance task. But I have also use this pattern to perform a search in a big dataset where each worker has part of it. Is it possible now to send a task to all workers? If not, are you planning to implement this?

Thanks,

Hernan
