The server we're using is still "simplepush". There's some tweaks we've
done in prep for WebPush, but it's not running as an HTTP2 service.

For the more python inclined, here's a pointer to the source:
https://github.com/mozilla-services/autopush/

(Some of you may note that this is python and not Go. Turns out that
python currently has more optimal libraries for doing this at larger
scale. As you happy Java folk know, sometimes good things come well aged.)

Eventually WebPush will come out with mandatory data encryption and
HTTP2 connections. Google's WebPush kinda/sorta does that now, except
they bury the client side into GCM and expose a portion of the server,
but it serves as an example of what's to come. Microsoft has also noted
that they'll be supporting WebPush eventually, although they've
expressed different concerns they'd like to have addressed. Apple, is
Apple, and if they release their version, we hope that it follows the spec.
