Notes:

• content URI should be HTTP-accessible and contain the content of the ad, so hosts don't have to transfer the same ad content over and over
• URI also acts as ID for the ad
• To save bandwidth, a host is not required to send the same channel-ad to a node (on another host) more than once. (Same means same URI.)
• Perhaps there needs to be a way to send address channel-ad to multiple nodes on the same host simultaneously in a single message...?
