I won't make a HS for iPhone. It's because I have only so much time,
and I don't choose to go there. I also won't make HS open source.

The only thing that someone needs from me in order to make an HS-
compatible list program for the iPhone is the HS database format.
Which is on its way to being publically released (with source code for
the database access stuff, in fact). Given the database format, the
rest of a list program can be written by anyone who wants to.
