The site isn't open source and probably won't be.. we try to open source stuff where it makes sense; we talked about it for the site, but don't see the value.  Who's going to want to host their own version of the site? :)

The list is a different story.  I've been thinking that over for a few weeks and I'm on the fence still.  I was also thinking about the value of people being able to do PRs on their own data to keep the list up to date.  However, the data model includes a contact name and email we would like to start collecting, but not publishing, so that we can get in touch with operators if it looks like updates are required.  Even though we intend for that to be a role contact (e.g. Hostmaster, NOC) it still runs the risk that someone includes an individual's contact info, and then we're up against PII issues.

I won't be making any immediate decisions; I'm pretty swamped for the next two weeks, and then on vacation until early November.  But if anyone has input they want to provide I'm happy to hear it.
