Hi Andrzej,
        as far as I have seen, half of the work is already done (in essence, session handling), and, depending on the approach you choose to follow for authentication (explicit through Transport vs Authenticator callbacks) it can be easier or not. In any case, good job!

        Best Regards,
                José María
