I'll leave that implementation detail to you. We've just unpacked the
ZIP into a tempdir, then we install from the tempdir, the files will
need to get deleted at some point... especially if we have a self
extracting ZIP, but I don't know how to do that in java... maybe we
could make a self extracting JAR installer, which would run when
doubleclicked on a (windoze) system with java installed?

Anyway, this is essential to improving routing and anonymity by reducing
the number of nodes announcing to the centrally collected seedrefs... so
if you could contact me, it would be helpful.
