My 2 non technical cents, I really think we should separate "push" from "sync" and integrate later,  bet on simple. In my opinion we are just adding one more level of complexity.

For example: would be perfect to add digital signatures, encrypted data for that storage and all the sick things from security. But that would add an extra level of complexity which would lead us to several months of development.

Is just my opinion, but if you guys think that we REALLY need Push, MVP or whatever atm, that's fine.
Then what we are talking about is no longer sync.  It is revision control.

I think we still need the synchronisation mode in pull mode.

How are we going to deal with this use case with simple push:
UserA is offline update some data, then switch off his phone
Some other users update data
UserA open his app, he has missed some push notifications but still want to sync his app.
That is the magic of Push systems.  He gets the messages when he comes online.

Device A and B and Server have data with a checksum of 42.
Device A goes offline.
Device A changes its data and has a checksum of 64.
Device B changes its data and has a checksum of 192.
Device B sends the expected server checksum of 42 and its new data to the server. 
Server accepts B's Data, updates its checksum to 192, and sends a message to all Devices ( in this case just A)

sending the data does not work via 'mobile push' - we need something like 'real-time' for that sending;
 

Device B and Server go on a long date, but things don't work out and they end up splitting the check 50/50.  Device B is annoyed because she only got a salad but Server got the Surf and Turf.

Device A comes online and receives a message from the server. 
Device A notices the server's checksum data is a change from 42 -> 192 and not 42 -> 64.  Thus its copy is out of sync and fires a message to the User of Device A to resolve the data.
User A resolves the data and Device A sends the merged data to the server.
Device B gets a message of new data and updates to what the server has.

Right.  I'm not saying lets do something complicated.  I'm saying lets
use GCM, iOS CM, and simple push to send notifications to tell the
client something.  In simplePush case it is "this data changed, get the
new stuff and update yourself".  In Android and iOS case it may be that
or it may be "here is new data".

In general, I am fine for getting a message saying something like
Documents/Schedules/1/${revision}.  Then I can check my revisions, fetch
data if necessary, update my local data, and send any updates.  That
SHOULD (I think) be doable with simplepush as well right?
