// Feed is a one to many subscription feed of the argument type.
//
// Messages received via p2p protocol are sent to subscribers by these event
// feeds. Message consumers should not use event feeds to reply to or broadcast
// messages. The p2p server will not relay them to peers. Rather, use the
// Send() or Broadcast() method on p2p.Server.
//
// Event feeds from p2p will always be of type p2p.Message. The message
// contains information about the sender, aka the peer, and the message payload
// itself.
//

//   sub := feed.Subscribe(ch)

//   // Wait until my message comes from a peer.
//   msg := <- ch
//   fmt.Printf("Message received: %v", msg.Data)
