##WorkMeLater WorkMeLater is an asynchronous queuing system built in python to process tasks later. It was inspired by github's resque system built to handle asynchronous tasks.

##Project goals We are a heavy user of pyres which is a resque clone built in python. There are several requirements we had that pyres did not support. Eventually we decided to build a new project to suit our needs.

- Support the ability to monkey path socket using gevent / eventlet for concurrency
- Support priority based queuing out of the box
- Use Flask for the webadmin
- Built in support for sharding tasks among redis instances
- Use LPOP instead of BLPOP so that worker are not starved on higher priority
    tasks, they can work on low priority ones as well
- ability to restart worker after X number of tasks
