The major work in this project is to provide a consistent method to share information over the mesh network. Currently, there are three scenarios which need to be supported:
#Unicast
#GroupCast
#Broadcast
D-Bus provides signals and methods:

* Method calls are called on a single participant, and they do have a return value.
