Given its "attribution/non-commercial/no derivative works/unported" it
is definitely not FOSS (Free Open Source Software). May I ask why you
don't put it under a license that allows modifications such as the BSD
or GPL? Do you plan to sell the app and make millions out of it? :D
Cause opening the development might bring contributions and help
improve the app faster much like the very development of OSM by the
way (there's a similar app for windows ce and qtopia that is FOSS by
the way http://code.google.com/p/opencitymap/). It's your app though
so you're the master of your domain ;)


Cheers,

Pat
