Is it possible to run our own EasyList web service? ie. is the code running on http://easylist.willemliu.nl/ open and available to run on our own servers?

Some people may not want their lists on someone else's server and possible also someone might want to write a desktop/symbian/iOS/Android version of EasyNote/EasyList that worked with the same service protocol.
The web code is not publically available. But that's because there is not much to see there. EasyList virtually isn't using any protocol to retrieve the online list. It polls the getList with a username and hashed password as URL parameters. The webservice returns plain text if validation is correct.

There might be a protocol in the future, but that comes with multiple list synchronization. It will take a while till that comes into the picture though.
