Allan Stockdill-Mander  commented on MQTT-58:
---------------------------------------------

I would say that you should use the QoS of the most specific matching subscription, and if you have equally matching subscriptions take the highest QoS.

If the client has been specific about a topic or area of topic space within another subscription we should follow its precise instructions and not presume it meant something else.

> A client has subscribed to a/+ with QoS2 and a/b with QoS1. A message is published to a/b. Does the client receive one or two messages? If one which QoS would apply?
