Re: [mosquitto-dev] Topic aliasing on messages sent out by Mosquitto

Hi,

yes.

I wonder whether the subscribing client shouldn't also have a say in
what topics it wants to be aliased in incoming messages. For example,
the client could set a "Topic Aliasing Requested" flag in the SUBSCRIBE
message and then the broker could do FCFS just for those topics. I know
this is not part of the spec so this is just a thought.

Best regards

Vera
