Interesting - I've been playing with Mosquitto broker and MQTT this past week. (esp8266 remote control project) It works really nicely and is reliable... so you're using it to notify you or update some page for what nodes are active???

Just wondering what uses MQTT on a BBS might be.

Sort of, I'm using it to show me what nodes are active in a gui application, but you could easily do it on a web page too. (Essentially what the gui application that comes with does, except this one doesn't have to run on the same machine)

pa> Just wondering what uses MQTT on a BBS might be.

Well you could get an arduino and hook up an lcd and have a little monitor or something :)

Synchronet doesn't just publish messages though it recevives them too, so you can potentially remote control your SBBS via MQTT messages.

There is a web page with all the features so far..

http://wiki.synchro.net/ref:mqtt

You can even nodespy with it.. it's really cool.
