A client might have a use case for peer to peer or group sharing of
location.

Internet access, cell phone coverage not guaranteed.
Wifi is available on a large private LAN.
Users may have phones or more likely, tablets.
A group of users are assigned a known key.
User can periodically send their location to one or all members of the
group.

If this were a place with phone coverage, I believe I would pick SMS
and send a broadcast intent.

The location plus other status information will probably fit in 140
characters or less.

What messaging would you use in this situation? I haven't really done
much message related programming with Android, and I thought I would
check here first, since someone has probably solved this already.

Thanks.

Nathan
