Yes, you can create your own masterlist. For that you may need the following things.
1. A website running which collect the data of servers.
2. You must have announce plugin edited so that the plugin sends the server data to your website, instead of official one.
3. If you have 5 servers, this edited announce plugin must be used on all these 5 servers.
4. In the client, you have to change the masterlist url to your website url/ip address.
Then go to internet tab, boom! You see your 5 servers name there.

How can I do step 2, where can I find the source code?

Step 2 is not your concern. It's the job of the server owners to make that choice.

People will not use a unvalidated third-party plugin in their server.

This enlighten me.
One way is
QuotePut http://master.thijn.ovh in your browser at Tools -> Options -> Masterlist URL

If you want your server to show up add the following to your server.cfg:
announce master.thijn.ovh

In the above example, 'master.thijn.ovh' is a website storing masterlist.

So without making our own plugin, you can use the announce plugin to do the work.
Thus, add "announce xyz" to server.cfg where xyz is the url/ip address of your website.
Do not forget to include plugin by modifying the line "plugins "
