This is sorted out by location server. iirc, you implemented the 
filtering based on allowed methods.

Going beyond the above consideration where a solution already exists and 
it is in place for many years, my concern was how long pay-per-volume 
will last thinking of current smart phone market pressure that worth to 
make a complex design costing fortunes to implement (e.g., IMS) and how 
much will turn in profit for a narrow niche.

There are other services sending shorter or longer notifications heavily 
used on mobiles, e.g., twitter, facebook. People are using them more 
than any presence system. Skype is largely used as well, with no 
intelligence in the network for processing the content.

Therefore, in the context of Inaki's building new specs for presence, 
the near future predictions and current market trends must play a major 
role.

Cheers,
Daniel
