Y'all,

Since I now have a GCM Topic PR up I figure it is time to revisit beefing up categories a bit.

Before we discussed enhancing the server and client APIs so one could subscribe and unsubscribe to topics without unregistering and reregistering.  This will require a new endpoint on UPS and new code in all the libraries

I agree we need a  PUT /device/metadata (or smt like that) even if today we support updating of existing installations; if you register an existing device, it will just update its metadata https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-unifiedpush-server/blob/master/service/src/main/java/org/jboss/aerogear/unifiedpush/service/impl/ClientInstallationServiceImpl.java#L69-L80 
  

We also discussed adding the ability to "route" messages to specific handlers based on what category the message was sent to.  This will require adding a field to all push messages that don't use GCM topics.  It will also require updates on the client code.
Can you elaborate a bit on that or point me to previous  discussions ?  

As an aside there is also GCM support on iOS, but it is much more complicated to set up.
