Hello Summers,

my concern would be that this repo is Ant based and not available in Maven Central. So a fork would indeed be needed. Other problem is that the lib does not support supplying backend server location - but this is something a PR can fix. In the past, I believe that we evaluated this library as an option as well https://github.com/phonedeck/gcm4j

Cheers,

Karel

Guys and gals,

UPS is currently using a fork of Google's rest-client sample to communicate with Google's servers (See the previous thread UPS and com.ganyo:gcm-server for details**).  This is an outdated fork from https://github.com/google/gcm.  

It is in fact very outdated.  The rest client code, Message and Builder objects, Constant fields, and Sender code don't support all of the fields/errors/etc needed for GCM topics messaging.  Additionally it uses a deprecated field in a few places.  I've filed two* issues*** in the gcm project to reach out and begin work with them to resolve this in a more sane way.  In the meanwhile we will probably have to patch and support our own fork of the library.

Thoughts, comments, tomatoes?

PS, this will probably bump XMPP support from aerogear-android-push 3.0 and UPS 1.2.  Please let me know if it should and i will pull those from the JIRA epics and we can reschedule them.

Summers
