We define a REsource LOcation And Discovery (RELOAD) Usage for
Application-Layer Multicast (ALM) as well as a mapping to the RELOAD
experimental message type to support ALM.  The ALM Usage is intended
to support a variety of ALM control algorithms in an
overlay-independent way.  Two example algorithms are defined, based
on Scribe and P2PCast.
