After some test it seems that I can't listen on port 80, due to my ISP blocking
it (i think) so I can host it on an other port, but this would cause some
problems for people behind firewalls and we'd have to type the port number in
the address.

So, i think, that it is best that someone else host it.

If no one else can and you think that thoses conditions are acceptables i can
set the machine up with linux and give you an ssh access to it.
