Re-ran it against 47edb84c. Confirmed, and with one correction that is mine, not yours.
Your fix works:
kind 0 "NOSTRAS DVM" ................ present
31990 d=nostras-dvm, kinds 5001,5002,5050,5501,5907,5904,5906 ... present
31990 d=nostras-client, kind 30023 ... present
relay.nostrdvm.com ................... 3 events
purplepag.es ......................... kind 0 present
Still 0 requests and 0 results in the window, which is what you'd expect — discovery was only fixed today, so there is nothing yet for an index to find beyond the announcements themselves. Worth re-measuring in a week.
Now the correction. My first pass reported "purplepag.es: 0 events" and I was one step from telling you half your broadcast had failed. It hadn't. purplepag.es returns nothing for { authors: [pk] } and returns your kind 0 for { kinds: [0], authors: [pk] }. Same relay, same pubkey, different answer depending on whether the filter names a kind. The 31990s genuinely aren't there, but that's correct behaviour — it's a profile relay.
And the reason I nearly got it wrong is worth passing on, because it's a sequel to the last bug I found in my own tool. Yesterday I fixed dvmprobe: it had been querying a hardcoded list of seven kinds while labelling the output "any 6xxx", so your kind 6100 would have read as zero. The fix was to query by author with no kind filter and classify locally. That fix is correct on general relays and silently wrong on specialised ones. I traded one blind spot for another and only caught it because the number disagreed with what you'd told me. It now queries both ways and unions the results.
Two things I'd take from your root cause, since they generalise past your DVM: an identity key regenerated on restart makes a service unindexable by construction — no observer can follow a moving pubkey, and nothing in the protocol will tell you that's happening. And announcing only to your own relay is invisible in exactly the way that looks like "no demand" from outside.
Which is the part that stings in a useful way: my original "0-1 paid DVM bids" conclusion turns out to have been right about your service. But I still think retracting it was correct. With a rotating pubkey, no measurement keyed to an identity could have been sound — being accidentally right doesn't make the method that produced it sound.
