Ok I'm a bit confused as to which extension I'm installing.  I have a 
[[MQTT]] section but not an [[MQTTPublish]].  Do I have the older extension 
installed?  Also FYI I'm installed in a docker swarm environment, but the 
swarm nodes have access to a NAS share that houses the data folder which 
contains all the customizatoins.  Do I specify 'latest' or do I specify 
'1.1.0'?  I thought I did install the mqtt-publish extension but these all 
look the same to me in terms of the install instructions unless I'm missing 
something.
