             Summary: Add different forwarding semantics for addresses
                 Key: DISPATCH-15
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-15
             Project: Qpid Dispatch
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.1
            Reporter: Ted Ross
            Assignee: Ted Ross
             Fix For: 0.2


At present, if there are multiple receivers for a particular address, Dispatch 
delivers a copy of each message to all of the receivers.  This feature adds the 
ability to by-configuration deliver messages to only one of those receivers.

The configuration for this feature is per-address and defines two settings:
 - _fanout_ is either Multiple or Single (and a placeholder for Group).  
Multiple fanout means all subscribers receive each message.  Single fanout 
means that only one subscriber receives the message.
- _bias_ controls how single-fanout is treated.  The following values for bias 
are provided:
   -- _Closest_ - each message is delivered to the closest/least-cost 
subscriber.
   -- _Spread_ - messages are spread indeterminately across all subscribers.
   -- _Latency_ - (not implemented yet) Messages are delivered in a balanced 
way to all subscribers based on the latency of acknowledgements.  This mode 
attempts to keep all subscribers equally fed with incoming messages.
