I had a vague idea of one or two similar projects underway. But 
90% of the code I just posted was written in early 2015. The 
initial delay getting it published was with the Eclipse legal 
process which dragged on for a few months, and just as it was 
done, they decided to move their development to GitHub. By that 
time I wasn't doing anything with D or MQTT, and the inertia died.

The idea from the beginning was do a fairly quick/simple wrapper 
library around the Paho C library, which would get the D version 
feature-complete and fully compliant in short time. Then the idea 
was to move on to a full D implementation for version 2.0. If 
there were any interest.

So this version doesn't do any of its own I/O; that's left to the 
C layer. Thus it doesn't require - and I'm not sure how it could 
be made compatible with - vibe.d

And originally I believe the Eclipse folks had wanted to keep 
external libraries to a minimum, but now exceptions to the rule 
seem to be the norm. So using vibe.d would probably be fine, 
assuming no license issues.
