I think he means they should make the ubbthreads source code opensource so someone else can develop it as such now you really can't legally develop it only mod it.
Donate to UBBDev today to help aid in Operational, Server and Script Maintenance, and Development costs.
Please also see our parent organization VNC Web Services if you're in the need of a new UBB.threads Install or Upgrade, Site/Server Migrations, or Security and Coding Services.
