Known Bugs

go-mod-messaging - BUG: Redis implementation has concurrency issue is subscribed to to same topic multiple times #133

Work around is to not subscribe to same topic multiple time or use MQTT as the MessageBus implementation
Corner case that may impacts custom App Services that do additional subscribing and eKuiper 1.4.x (resolved in eKuiper 1.4.? to not subscribe twice)
- Note: Jakarta released with eKuiper 1.3.1 which doesn't expose this bug

App SDK - Issue overriding AppCustom settings with environment variables #1043
- Work around is to have override in-place when service first starts or change value via Consul
App SDK - /api/v2/config doesn't return Custom Config sections #1035
- No work around
