[paho-dev] Status of paho-mqtt for python

[Nic Schrading <nschrading@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, I'm trying to determine if the paho-mqtt client for python is still supported?

There are some high priority fixes for MQTTv5 in the 1.6.2 branch, e.g. the fix for this issue: https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.python/issues/696, but they have not yet been released to PyPI despite being merged at the beginning of the year.

There are also some fixes in PRs that haven't yet been merged but would also be wonderful to fix for MQTTv5, e.g. https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.python/issues/715

Does this project still have a maintainer? Is there an expected release date for the 1.6.2 branch?

Thank you,
Nic Schrading
