"The developer & owner of Gnomefiles' PHP source code is Eugenia Loli. 
OSNews LLC (the company behind GnomeFiles) is using the source code 
under a special licensing condition (at no cost). This repository engine 
can be easily modified to store documents, music or any other item that 
can be categorized. If you are interested in purchasing or licensing the 
source code, email Eugenia directly at..."

Does this mean we can't pick up the code and host it ourselves?
It would be cool to get at least the data. The site filled a important gap.
If we can't host it ourselves, I'm interesting in start designing 
something new if someone is willing to help with the code.
