/************************************************************************
 * GMXP: General Message Exchange Protocol.
 *
 * The existing experiences of Forums & Channels have highlighted some
 * significant limitations of the Cache-Based exchange system. Based
 * on this initial understandings - an improved transport system will
 * be design to provide a generalised message exchange foundation, 
 * which can be used to build new services... 
 *
 *
 * Key Properties:
 *
 * 1) Message independent: Should be able to be used for Forums, Channels
 *   Twitter, Photos, Task Tracking, Link Cloud, etc.
 * 2) Easy to Use: Specify(Msg, Permissions, KeyId) only.
 * 3) Efficient Network Transport. (in common with GIXP)
 * 4) Efficient Cache System (in common with GIXP).
 * 5) Uses Groups Feature (in common with GIXP).
 * 6) Search Protocols. ( might need overloading at higher level).
 *

/******
 * NOTES:
 * 1) This represents the base of the Unpacked Msgs, it will be overloaded by all classes
 * that want to use the service. It is difficult to go from gxmp::msg => gxmp::signedmsg
 * so data should be stored in the signedmsg format.
 * 2) All services will fundamentally use data types derived from this.
 * 3) This packet is only serialised once at post time, typically it is deserialised be all nodes.
