I read the bitmessage's whitepaper and he has a section on scalability. He proposes child nodes, but I don't know how well that would scale.

Your concept sounds interesting. Could you, by chance fill your about page on HN (a bitmessage address will do too) so if I want I could PM you.

The proposed 'streams' for scalability have not been implemented yet, and there is no clear method to implement them. There is currently some discussion on the BM forum on how to scale without streams.

In that case I don't see any way without a central or multiple central announce servers.
