-<p>Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) is a service for both Android-powered device and
-Chrome instances to send and receive message data from servers.
-The <a href="gcm">chrome.gcm API</a> allows the Chrome apps or extensions
-to access the GCM service for the signed-in Chrome users.
-The service works even if an app or extension isn't currently running.
-For example, calendar updates could be pushed
-to users even when their calendar app isn't open. </p>

-<h2 id="enable_gcm">Enable GCM</h2>
-
-<p>To use GCM for your app or extension, do the following:</p>
-
-<ol>
-<li>Upload your app or extension client to the <a href="https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/publish">Chrome Web
-Store</a>.</li>
-<li>A user installs your app or extension.</li>
-<li>Your app or extension client requests a registration ID using $(ref:gcm.register)
-function and sends this ID to your server together with information
-identifying the user. For more details, please see <a href="#obtain_registration_id">Obtain registration
-ID</a>.</li>
-</ol>
-
-<h2 id="receive_a_message">Receive a message</h2>
-
-<p>At a glance, receiving a message works like this:</p>
-
-<ol>
-<li>Your app or extension client should register a handler to receive the
-$(ref:gcm.onMessage) event.</li>
-<li>When your server sends a message to the user, it specifies all of the
-registration IDs that are related to that user and passes the message to the
-GCM service.</li>
-<li>GCM servers route the message to all instances of Chrome running apps or
-extensions with one of the registration IDs.</li>
-<li>When the message arrives on the client, Chrome starts the app or extension,
-if it is not already running, and calls the registered handler to process the
-message.</li>
-</ol>
-
-<p>For more details, please see <a href="#receive_messages">Receive messages</a>.</p>
-
-<h2 id="send_a_message">Send a message</h2>
-
-<p>At a glance, sending a message works like this:</p>
-
-<ol>
-<li>Your app or extension generates a unique message ID, so that it is possible
-to find out which message failed to be queued or delivered.</li>
-<li>Your app or extension calls $(ref:gcm.send) function with an object containing
-message ID, destination ID that identifies the server, and data that consist
-of a list of key value pairs. In this step you can also provide an optional
-time-to-live for the message.</li>
-<li>The callback passed to $(ref:gcm.send) function will be called to notify the
-result. Your app or extension should check $(ref:runtime.lastError) to find out if
-the message has been successfully queued for delivery. Please refer to <a href="#error_reference">Error
-reference</a> for possible error codes that could be
-returned.</li>
-<li>In cases that the queued message could not be delivered to the GCM server,
-like network error, a $(ref:gcm.onSendError) event will be fired. Your app or
-extension can listen to this event and react to it, e.g. by trying to resend
-the message. Please refer to <a href="#error_reference">Error reference</a> for
-possible error codes that could be returned.</li>

-<p>For more details, please see <a href="#send_messages">Send messages</a>.</p>

-<p class="note"><strong>Display messages in rich notifications format:</strong><br>
-GCM and rich notifications API are a natural fit;
-Use GCM to send and receive message data; use rich notifications to display
-the data in the user's system tray

 <p>Your app or extension needs to register with GCM servers before it can receive
-messages. When an app or extension registers, it receives a registration ID.
-This is achieved by calling $(ref:gcm.register) and specifying a list of senders
-identified by project numbers from Google Developers Console. Your app or
-extension should pass a callback function to verify that the registration was
-successful. If successful, the received registration ID should be sent back to

+which should be sent back to your application server in a secure way, for
+example, via https. Otherwise, your app or extension should handle the error

 <p>If your app or extension wishes to receive messages from the different senders,
 it can call $(ref:gcm.register) again with the new sender list and the new
 registration ID will be returned.</p>

 <p>Your app or extension is automatically unregistered from the GCM service when a
 user uninstalls it.</p>
 
 <h3 id="receive_messages">Receive messages</h3>
 
-<p>When your server sends a message to the user, it specifies all of the
-registration IDs that are related to that user and passes the message to the GCM
-service. GCM servers route the message to all instances of Chrome running apps
-or extensions with one of the registration IDs. If your app or extension has
-been installed in more than one profiles in a single Chrome instance, all of
-them can receive messages independently based on their unique registration IDs.</p>
+<p>When your server wants to send a message to the user, it needs to connect to a
+GCM connection server in one of two ways as described in the Android
+<a href="http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/server.html">Implementing GCM Server</a>
+document. The message specifies all of the registration IDs that are related to
+that user. When the GCM server receives the message, it routes the message to
+all instances of Chrome running apps or extensions with one of the registration
+IDs. If your app or extension has been installed in more than one profiles in a
+single Chrome instance, all of them can receive messages independently based on
+their unique registration IDs.</p>
 
 <p>Messages from the server are delivered via the $(ref:gcm.onMessage) event. Your app
 or extension must register a handler to receive this event.</p>
 
 <pre data-filename="background.js"><code>
 chrome.gcm.onMessage.addListener(function(message) {
   // A message is an object with a data property that
   // consists of key-value pairs.
 });

 <p>As long as Chrome is running, even if the extension or app is not running, it is
 woken up to deliver a message.</p>
 
 <h3 id="send_messages">Send messages</h3>
 
+<p>In addition to delivering push messages from your server to the client, the GCM
+supports sending upstream messages from the client to your server. Your server
+should be set up to connect to GCM Cloud Connection Server as described in the
+Android <a href="http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/ccs.html">GCM Cloud Connection
+Server</a> document.</p>
+
 <p>To send messages upstream, your app or extension should call $(ref:gcm.send) with an
 object containing:</p>
 
 <ul>
 <li>Message ID that identifies the message when it fails to be queued or
 delivered. The message ID can be any kind of string. However, it is
 recommended to stay unique across the lifetime of your app or extension, even
 after it restarts. If you use the same message ID, there may be a chance that
 the previous message gets overridden. If an auto-increment counter is used to
 create the message ID, your app or extension should persist the counter value
-via <a href="storage">chrome.storage</a> API and restore it when the app

 total).</li>
 <li>Time-to-live (TTL, optional). This property value must be a duration from 0 to
-2,419,200 seconds (4 weeks) and it corresponds to the maximum period of time
-for which GCM will store and try to deliver the message. If this property is

 <p>GCM messages are often a tickle, telling the app or extension to contact the

 this situation, wherein new messages replace older ones. When a collapse key is
 provided and multiple messages are queued up in the GCM servers for the same
 user, only the last one with any given collapse key is delivered to your app or
 extension. As a result the <code>message</code> object passed to the $(ref:gcm.onMessage) event
 will contain a <code>collapseKey</code>field. For more details about sending collapsible

 <li><strong>Function was called with invalid parameters</strong>: this could happen when gcm
 functions are called with bad parameters.</li>
 <li><strong>Profile was not signed in</strong>: this could happen when gcm functions are called
 from a profile that was not signed in.</li>
 <li><strong>Asynchronous operation is pending</strong>: this could happen when certain gcm
 function is called again without waiting for the callback passed in previous
 function to be called.</li>
 <li><strong>Network error occurred</strong>: this could happen when GCM server fails to reach
 due to network problem, like losing Internet connection.</li>
 <li><strong>Server error occurred</strong>: this could happen when GCM server fails to reach
 due to server problem, like server busy.</li>
 <li><strong>Time-to-live exceeded</strong>: this could happen when a message could not be
 delivered within the specific time-to-live period.</li>
