Hmm…pushing to the phone would also be interesting.

I am not sure I understand the Bluez stuff… Do you suggest an event collection plugin or an action plugin to forward to Bluetooth devices?

The Android notifier protocol is definitely a candidate for an eventd event collection plugin.

I want to create a WebSockets(/JSON?) version of EvP, with a JS library, to create clients on Firefox OS and others phone OSes. That will need event registration (= the reverse path of the current relay plugin).
I do not know how I want to support some webserver-based solution for WAN cases. Probably a new feature of the relay plugin, to push to some existing provider.
I am not aware of all the existing phone OSes services, so maybe all of that would be covered by this feature.

I think both directions might be useful (as I've done with fedmsg).

The Android notifier protocol is definitely a candidate for an eventd
event collection plugin.

There are GATT profiles
for alerts (I see notifications, phone alerts. Should probably aim for
those.

I am not aware of all the existing phone OSes services, so maybe all
of that would be covered by this feature.

Ideally, the GATTs would be supported. If not, specific plugins for
other protocols could be implemented?

Hmm. Interesting. Preview when editing shows the right rendering for the link, but it seems it remembers that it came in over email.
