Nice take on announce_meta, btw. I had mused over something similar (though not as well fleshed out) to the Nightweb concept but kept bumping my ahead against the notion of how to announce additional content when the bittorrent protocol ties info hashes (and magnet links) to a direct hash of the content - meaning you could never update something already announced for a specific key. And since the hashes are content based, it's not like you could say "my next content will be <<previous hash plus 1>>".
Extending the protocol to include a new announcement method side-steps this very nicely :) Kudos.
