new version limits username to 22 characters = #fail about android HOT 14 CLOSED

i used to be able to have a username with 36 characters
Didn't see that one coming tbh ;)
22 character limit is a copy paste bug from the device name aka client id
that is limited to 22 characters per spec. Will be fixed in the next
release.

i used to be able to set the clientID
It's now called device name for the not so MQTT savy people

i used to be able to have a username with 36 characters, and i used to be
able to set the clientID. both of these options seem to have gone away…

From what I hear, the 22 character limit is to be raised in future specs.

The Paho library doesn't support more (yet). Once that changes I'll adapt
the limits accordingly.

when are we pushing a new version to the play store??? (i guess i'm a nag)

from android.

I'm not seeing this as a critical issue, so the fix will be included in the 0.4.22 together with some other improvements. ETA: Probably once other issues are ironed out (#47, #11, #50)

from android.

err, the app can't connect to my broker because of this, so i'd classify it as "critical"

      "est opus, quod upgraded, quod patrarat"

from android.

I suggest to chose a shorter username then for the time being ;)

    "dimittam mane, dimissi saepe"

I for one would appreciate English instead of Latin in the comments.

if this is fixed, could you push 0.4.22 to the play store? if not, could you reopen it?
