This looks really cool. I went ahead and added it to the Arch User Repositories[0].

Ok, I know message queues[1] are not the most popular part of System V IPC, but was it really necessary to overload the name?

(I mean ActiveMQ et al overloading "message queue" in general, not you pipecat project)

I don't have any experience with zeromq as I mostly deal with AMQP protocols. But good that you mention it - if there is a demand I can dig into it.

There are quite a few other message queue systems out there. I can also imagine that pipecat could work as a kind of migration systems between them. But this probably should be a separate tool as it requires shuffling around metadata as well.

Yeah... Maybe change it to a cat crawling into a pipe? Depicted from the side?

Now that I look at it again it also seems offensive. Switched it to a more boring but more suitable logo.

Thanks.

I didn't see anything wrong with the old logo. Too bad you felt the need to change it.

I actually liked the original logo, despite my comment. The new one works very well, too.
