/**
   This example shows how to implement nested protocols.
   In this case in particular we want to implement a broker agent
   that forwards incoming requests to perform actions to another 
   agent. To implement that we use an <code>AchieveREResponder</code> ("Achieve Rational effect") 
   and we register an <code>AchieveREInitiator</code> in the state where the 
   requested action has to be performed.
