Is there any APNS (Apple Push Notification Service) wrapper for ColdFusion?

Or does this Java one work?

Java: http://code.google.com/p/javapns/

PHP: http://code.google.com/p/apns-php/

If not existed, shall we start a open source project on riaforge / github / google code? port from PHP's?

+2  A: 

CF 6+ provides access to Java objects through CreateObject(). This would likely be much simpler than rewriting the PHP code. You could either use the Java objects you linked to, or the ones (with instructions) that @Sam Farmer linked to.

so maybe I should just use the Java implementation? any advantage of having a pure CF implementation?
Henry
The only advantages I can think of are 1) more readable to pure CF programmers and 2) more expandable/editable to pure CF programmers. If the libraries work appropriately, I'd just stick with the Java implementation, and update to the newest version when needed.
