(adding a vote for support of Zeroconf in Qt : https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-30823) I think that the Pub - Sub support is covered in part by the recent MQTT addition : https://blog.qt.io/blog/2017/08/14/introducing-qtmqtt-protocol/ though one would hope that each IoT *protocole du jour* won't have its own separate implementation and instead there can be some generic that implements pub-sub, a bit like QIODevice.
