No. One instance of each worker module listens to one channel only.
However, you can have the same worker module running in multiple
instances, e.g. hobbitd_rrd runs twice - one listens on the "status"
channel, the other listens on the "data" channel.

clients.

It was never finished, so you cannot do anything with it. What did you
have in mind ?
