Whatevercast (RINA)

A proposed concept for the unification of unicast, anycast, multicast and broadcast. The proposed API is allocate(whatevercastname) and the network will resolve the correct set for you based on the whatevercast name and a set of rules associated with it. It is not detailed how this is supposed to work, trying to implement this led to the Ouroboros multicast conjecture.
