It is clear that we got right when implementing support for files and  
albums :)

But what worries me is that blacksnday explicitely requested support  
for moblogging. BH being a closed-source tool, who can guarantee that  
they will not copy our stuff right away? After all, we're already  
done all the hard work (parsing the message and getting something  
meaningful out of it) and they only have to readapt certain parts to  
their library of functions.

Furthermore, I am a bit worried that we being the main competitor  
with them, they could easily "borrow" most of our key features from  
us by just incorporating our code... I know I am being paranoic, but  
seeing the latest GPL abuses I don't think that this is too far-fetched.

We can always purchase a license and look at the code ourselves :)

By the way, this is a clear example of what we mean when we say that  
SQL code should be separated from HTML code which should be separated  
from PHP code:
