Describe the solution you'd like

According to the documentation, clients for Java and Python are available, such as the following:

https://github.com/bloomberg/blazingmq-sdk-java

I would be interested in helping contribute to an sdk for dotnet if the project maintainers feel this might be of use to the broader community.

Hi @jeffdoolittle, thanks for reaching out. We're excited to see such enthusiasm to support BlazingMQ clients in other languages. As mentioned, we have a Java SDK which is a full implementation of the BlazingMQ C++ client SDKs and we are working on publishing a Python SDK which will use native bindings to the C++ client. I'm not sure which one of these approaches would be most appropriate for a .NET SDK, but if the community wants to support these projects we're happy to provide guidance.

I personally think it would be interesting for this repo to provide a C API which most languages could very easily bind to.

Hi I wonder if it you are considering publishing a wire-level protocol for BlazingMQ? That would allow native client libraries to be developed by the community, which should offer greater flexibility than building on top of a C API. I am particularly interested in a .Net client, but one that makes use of native asynchronous I/O within .Net would be most appealing.
