open source or sample Apple Push Notification Provider app out there in ObjC or C ?

[objectwerks inc]

Hi

I have gotten involved at the last minute in an iPhone project where we would like to add push notifications (convention app -- want to push out last minute announcement notifications). The client side is no problem but from a time perspective we don't really have time to build a provider app (the part that pushes TO the Apple servers and maintains the registered device list etc). Does anyone know of any open source or sample projects that implement this sort of thing in ObjC or straight C that I could use as a foundation to build on? This all has to be done and working by first half of next week and I cannot get on to it until Saturday due to previous engagements so I thought I would see if I can build on existing sample code.

Thanks
Chad

One shouldn't be hard to build, and I'll probably end up making one with WebObjects in the next few weeks. In the mean time, UrbanAirship have a product that will handle this for you, and is widely used.
