The goal is, to give them a Java Utility to use to for sending. If they
want, they can still do the HTTP by hand. Ideally we have this "client" for
other platforms as well:

Once the endpoints are secured, we will leverage that on the client side

It is fire and forget.

Well, we do not really have much control there. Apple, for instance, does
also not really tell you: "I could not deliver the push message to Mr.
XYZ". Similar is google.
They all have "feedback" service, that's more "here is a list of
invalid
device tokens". This info should NEVER be returned, from our
Sender-Endpoint.
Other cloud providers do similar: HTTP 200 + "Thanks we got your job, it
is now being processed by our system"
I agree that we don't have control between "our" systems and
Google's/Apple's networks. But, between our push server and our backend
server, the chance is bigger that the dev has more control. The thing is
that the sender api now "swallow" the http status, just making the http
status available for the backend app using the sender API will be a nice
benefit (there could be no connection between our pushee and our backend
app for instance) ...

For Java, I do not see a reason in supporting two "client". I did start
with AsyncHttpClient and RestEasy client. I was hoping to see odds/benefits
in one....
Looking at the code, I think I do prefer using the RestEasy inside of our
Java-Sender....

of course, but that's that's outside of the "java lib" we are talking
about here. Surely, we can have a vertx-sender, node-sender etc

that is nice. The project is simple now, and was written while I was
hacking the sender endpoints - that way I could avoid sending lot's of
CURLs ;-)
