Sven,

I am currently working with IoT and MQTT is necessary. At this point I use
mosquitto as the broker and your Pharo client is nice to have and I will
test it and give you feedback.

I've got a working microPython codebase so can compare what is in there
(this for the LoPy device):

Thx for the module!

Phil
