Hello everybody, 

My name is Pavlo and I'm a member of a team currently working on a project of Open Source P2P TV platform which is called Nebel.tv. We are consider using Tahoe-Lafs functionality as distributed storage (Meta content - releases, media content) of connected mobile devices on IPv6-based protocol.  
I'm writing to wonder if anybody can advise on using Tahoe-Lafs capabilities in our project, or you could be interested in contributing. 
Here are few more details: This has to be a network of vasty distributed nodes, which has both client and server capabilities. So, they do store some information as well as read it at every node. This is p2p architecture similar to what you can find in the bittorrent but different to the extent of it application to lossy storage of media data. Using LAFS we plan to overcome "tracker node" needs: as all members of the network will become 'trackers' for their own published content as well as the content of their directly visible peers. Please, mind that single network user might contribute to the network with several nodes, as the same application can be installed across multiple personal devices: smartphones, tablets and always-on featured devices hdmi dongles or set-top-boxes. 
Looking forward for your replies. 
Regards, Pavlo
