## Problem statement
When delivering time-critical data the periodic polling of an API may miss the exact time of a data update.  To avoid this latency varied approaches are used including the use of a variety of protocols including ftp, rsync, STOMP, OpenWire, and also HTTP using PUT. Examples of this type of data include news data in general, and particularly sports event data.  The problem of latency requiring a "push" service occurs in many other areas too.  In order to accommodate this sort of data feed, recipients would like to be aware of features of the data feed such as the maximum rate of the data feed, the maximum unit size of the data that is provided in one bolus, in addition to other attributes necessary for connecting with this type of data services.

## Requirements
For consumers to be able to document in their data repository that the content was generated by a specific set of push services..  For publishers to be able to alert potential recipients to the scale of the data bolus that they need to be prepared to receive, and the maximum rate at which to expect the push feed.

* Provide consumers with a means to document the source of their data coming from a push service
* Provide publishers with a means to describe the volume and maximum rate at which their data will be pushed to the recipient
* Provide
