I like the idea, so I was checking it out. I was confused by this
statement in the download terms:

> Since MyZone Client Application is open source, you will not change any
> part of MyZone’s code without the written approval of MyZone’s copyright
> owner Alireza Mahdian reached at (alireza.mahdian at colorado dot edu). 

Can you explain what you mean? Usually, something called "open source"
can be modified without any additional written approval.
