Incomming ZeroMQ message is received and parsed to JSON format (same as our WebSocket communication format). JSON string is then passed to _thread 2_ for sending. Each message has an identifier of channel where to send it to. Incomming ZeroMQ message is received and parsed to JSON format (same as our WebSocket communication format).

If there's connected receiver on that channel id, there is separate instance _asyncio.Queue_ where ready-to-send messages are stored. Messages from that queue are sent through corresponding WebSocket connection via main event loop as soon as possible. This approach with separate queue per connection is easy to implement and guarantees reliability and order of message delivery. There can be multiple receivers to one channel id. Each one has separate _asyncio.Queue_ instance where new messages are added. In addition to that, there is one list of all messages per channel. If a client connects a bit later, it'll receive all messages from the beginning. Messages are stored 5 minutes after last progress command (FINISHED), then are permanently deleted.

When there's no connected receiver for message channel id, the message is dropped with warning message in monitor's log file.
