/**
* A channel is a representation of a group of nodes all participating in some sort of communication with each other.
*
* The channel is the main API class for Tribes, this is essentially the only class that an application needs to be
* aware of. Through the channel the application can:
*
* - send messages
* - receive message (by registering a
ChannelListener
* - get all members of the group
getMembers()
* - receive notifications of members added and members disappeared by registering a
*
MembershipListener
*
* The channel has 5 major components:
*
* - Data receiver, with a built in thread pool to receive messages from other peers
* - Data sender, an implementation for sending data using NIO or java.io
* - Membership listener,listens for membership broadcasts
* - Membership broadcaster, broadcasts membership pings.
* - Channel interceptors, the ability to manipulate messages as they are sent or arrive
*
* The channel layout is:
*
*
*
* ChannelListener_1..ChannelListener_N MembershipListener_1..MembershipListener_N [Application Layer]
