I just want to throw out a little "woot" here, great stuff Nick.

It is possible to self-host the account server.  It's just very fiddly
and vastly under-documented.  Sorry.  Some existing resources include:

   http://docs.services.mozilla.com/howtos/run-fxa.html
   https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncserver/issues/30

We want to make this situation better, but it's a bit of a can of worms.

works or doesn't for you use-case.


  Cheers,
