Hi Justin,

well the example is actually still using MQTT3 as I thought this would have 
more value at the moment. 
However the lib allows both MQTT5 and MQTT3 and I'm definitely going to add an 
MQTT5 example to the module.

The main reason for me trying MQTT-Bee was my travels in the last year. Having 
spoken at a lot of conferences,
I regularly met with Dominik Obermayer who was doing a similar promotion-tour 
for MQTT5 and was discussing options to support MQTT5 in Apache Edgent. 
There are some features in MQTT bee, which I think are really great for IoT 
use-cases. Especially of its ability to react to internet connection 
disruptions.

It's Apache 2.0 licensed in contrast to Eclipse (Which also would have been 
fine). 

So I was giving it a try and hoping to be able to join forces with Dominik's 
MQTT5 tour, cause I think both techs are a great addition.

Building a PAHO example however should be super-easy. 

Chris

    I’m not run into anyone using MQTT5 in production but assume it will happen 
at some point. Was there any reason for choosing that library rather than 
something that is more commonly used i.e. Eclipse Paho [1]
    
    Thanks,
