 MINA currently provides only NIO transport types for now. NIO doesn't 
support multicast for now and it will be supported in Java 6.
 But MINA provides abstract API, so you can implement your own transport 
type, say broadcast support using blocking I/O, or even TCP support using 
old sockets.
 We'll implement all of them in 0.9 stream. Please look at this roadmap:
