patch #2341 was a try at displaying availability.
Here's the problem : 
availability is a function in commonSwarming.ml. Basically it's a counter of
uploaders for each bloc. 
To have correct availability you must register/unregister uploaders.
Currently we never register correctly an uploader :
When we receive a bitfield we first unregister it and then register it 
(-1 uploader +1 uploader = 0 uploader )
There's still a bug (which i didn't find) with this patch which 
cause the number of uploaders to be < 0. Sending this kind of availbility (<0)
to gui result in the 'disparition' of the file (only in gui display).
