Ask HN: How should I open-source my iOS app?

My friend and I just released out first iPhone app, "Silent Shout" (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/silent-shout/id439580131?mt=8&ls=1), and we want to open-source it. I've never open-sourced anything, and have never done much more than fork open-source projects and modify them for my own purposes, so I'm quite ignorant about the process of open-sourcing projects. Our goal is to allow people to use the code and learn from it for any non-commercial purposes. We want to retain the right to earn money from the project (through future in-app purchases, or adding a price to the app for v2). I'd love for this to be a collaborative project, rather than something like Canabalt (https://github.com/ericjohnson/canabalt-ios) which seems like its simply a one-time code giveaway. Is there a license which fits our case, and aside from setting up a publi

But the license states otherwise: "Content" includes but is not limited to the art, sound effects, music, and anything covered by national and internation copyright and trademark laws. "Content" SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDES all source code found within the "flixel-ios" folder of this archive, which is distributed under a different license. All other source code is considered "Content". https://github.com/ericjohnson/canabalt-ios/blob/master/GAME...
