The part between "here comes my infodict" and "there went my infodict" is what 
goes into the bootpage.  Here it is un-line-broken:

here comes my infodict
{'services': [{'publishing allowed': 'true', 'type': 'block server'}, {'type': 'meta tracker'}], 'platform': 'win32', 'sequence num': 8, 'node version': '0.7.0.105-UNSTABLE', 'pyver': '2.3.2 (#49, Oct  2 2003, 20:02:00) [MSC v.1200 32 bit (Intel)]'}
there went my infodict

Your bootpage should look something like this:

BROKER_VERSION_STR: 0.6.2.305-STABLE
MULTI_ROOT_ID_TRACKER_CONTACT_INFO: [{'services': [{'publishing allowed': 'true', 'type': 'block server'}, {'type': 'meta tracker'}], 'platform': 'win32', 'sequence num': 8, 'node version': '0.7.0.105-UNSTABLE', 'pyver': '2.3.2 (#49, Oct  2 2003, 20:02:00) [MSC v.1200 32 bit (Intel)]'}]

If some mail software between me and you has added line breaks into that then 
you'll have to unadd them (or wget http://zooko.com/bootpage.txt and use it as 
an example).  There should be exactly two lines, one beginning with 
"BROKER_VERSION_STR" and one beginning with 
"MULTI_ROOT_ID_TRACKER_CONTACT_INFO".

Actually the BROKER_VERSION_STR is optional and the added "[]" around the 
infodict is optional.  (That is Python syntax for a list, so that you can have 
multiple MetaTracker phonebookentries there.  But if you have a dict instead 
of a list then it interprets it as a single MetaTracker phonebookentries.)
