danc,
No harm, no foul, and I don't blame you for asking. The reality is that somebody with knowledge of how to develop for Windows Mobile could quite easily borrow ideas from this app to code for wm. They could also fairly easily capture the data from this app if they had an iPhone or knew somebody who did.
The other reality is that the programming model for iPhone vs. Win Mobile is quite different, so it would be tough to actually leverage the code itself. That said, if a developer were to ask me about collaboration, it would be a low priority for me given the ideas I have to continue to develop the next version of Mobile Stogie, and I have a real job so this is just a (very time consuming) hobby for me. So they'd mostly be on their own.
I put a copyright notice on the app to protect myself, but I don't have a cadre of lawyers to pursue somebody copying it on the wm platform. I also wouldn't want to prevent fellow BOTL's from having a nice app for their wm devices if somebody took up that effort.
Bottom line is that it's tough to get too excited about a hypothetical situation. If somebody reaches out to me with real coding questions, I'd do what I could, but it probably wouldn't be much, given my time constraints.
Again, no harm, no foul
