(function(jQuery){
  var o = jQuery({});
  jQuery.each({ 
    "subscribe" : "bind", 
    "unsubscribe" : "unbind", 
    "publish" : "trigger" 
  }, function ( fn, api ) {

Pass in jQuery, to be referred to internally as… jQuery? Bit verbose innit?

Verbosity is not the reason doing namespace resolving with self-invoking functions.

@rwaldron: this just saved my ass until the refactor... ^^
