Hi Tom,

I'm building an application for students and teachers that will enable them to 
send "urgent" messages like "Teacher x is ill", "No lessons tomorrow" or "the 
grades are available on the website".
I would like to add push-notifications to this service. Urban Airship looks 
very promising but frankly, It's a little out of my league. Could you perhaps 
get me started with some tips on where to start reading and conceptually how to 
set things up?
The Urban Airship documentation is quite comprehensive and contains xcode 
samples, but I do not know how to translate that into a working livecode app. 
Do you have any suggestions on where to start?

best regards,
John Allijn
