Support ServiceName for WP 8 to implement no-quota (unthrottled) push notifications.

[systempuntoout]

PushPlugin for WP8 should support the creation of a new HttpNotificationChannel specifying a ServiceName in order to get a no-quota service from MPNS.

HttpNotificationChannel constructor to use:

Hi, thanks for this!

I'm curious to know whether you need this no-quota service as the current unauthenticated service allows max 500 pushes per subscription..

Well, it is not clear what the term subscription means for Microsoft; if it is a User subscription (500 for each user) or a Channel subscription (500 for all the installed applications).
We even asked to Microsoft and they answered to switch to the Authenticated push.
It is recommended to use the authenticate service because, you can just push notifications from a known server in client certificate.
Are you going to support this feature?
Let me know if you need a hand.

I agree that's ambiguous at best. We need to discuss this internally, I'll leave this open.

Any news on this?
