The proposed fields you mentioned look good to me. One other quick
thought, is perhaps the "codebase" fields should have a flag or other
standard way of representing the case of something being mostly of a
"codebase" but with a minor patch or two.

And another thought, is if it would be worthwhile for a redone
metaserver connection method to actually be a distributed metaserver as
was once thought about a long while back. I'm not sure that would be
good, but if the connection method were to be redone, it would be worth
thinking about those sorts of things.
