Announcement is working, including connecting to initial seednodes. We don't 
have any automated way of gathering seednodes yet. There are a couple of 
largish bugs in the deployed code which cause announcements to bounce around 
the network indefinitely; fortunately, the deployed code doesn't actually 
make announcement requests. The trunk code will out of the box announce 
itself to randomly chosen nodes in its seednodes.fref (if there is one) until 
it has 10 opennet peers (if opennet is enabled).

So, we need:
- Yet another mandatory (1089). Sorry folk.
- A list of public seednodes. If a few people with static IPs/dyndns and 
opennet would send me their noderefs, we can build a temporary seednodes.fref 
from that. In the longer term, the node will detect if you are eligible to be 
a seednode, ask if you want to be one, and if so upload regularly to a server 
on emu.
- To bundle this list with the node.

In conclusion: the end of #freenet-refs is nigh, finally!
