This whole "vanilla peq open source" vision sounds just like this one - http://eqemu.org which has been recently "rebooted".

I know nothing about coding. I always wondered why doesn't anyone use the original vanilla cd to make a server?

None of the quests are on the disc. None of the item stats are on the disc. None of the mob stats are on the disc. It's nowhere near as simple as inserting the client-side installer and "viola!". It's not even just coding. There is a metric ton of research/data gathering done just to be able to say you have an idea of how you can make things "close enough to be passable".
