* If you use the manager it has to be a shared pointer. Otherwise you will

* To add participants to the manager call class function connect.
* Calling start method will start the manager.
*
* Depending on your concept you can first connect all participants to
* the manager and then start it. Or you can start in first and then
* connect the participants. In the first example all participant will
* be started at the same time (when calling start from the manager.)
* In the second example they will be started when they are connected.
* That means if you have one starting event that all participants need
* to receive you would choose example 1.
