Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
I am currently working on a web interface that lets non-git-annex users request files to be available in a specific repository (which will be located on the storage cluster of a HPC system). A combination of git annex metadata and an appropriate required content expression should make this essentially trivial, which is nice. The time-limit option would be helpful for the background worker doing all the fetching, though.
