Out of curiosity I started to look up what it meant and your site was my last hope. So, are you “Snowball”? If so why wouldn’t they give proper recognition in the app? Probably answered my own question if you are. Thanks for taking the time to humor me:)


For people who don't have an iPhone, and since it's not in their online copy (which only lists their end user license), I've attached a screenshot of this. I'd guess the lack of further detail is down to the absence of concrete license text, as recently discussed. I suspect that fixing this will at some point result in an update to include the appropriate BSD license text, which would presumably contain some kind of reference to the project or its website.

Best,
James
