Bless N900 isn't capturing, it's post-processing images already taken by camera judging by artifacting and quality.

Why do you insist on calling it open source? I could write a program and release the source code while at the same time prohibit every modification or distribution - that would be a very proprietary program indeed. I suggest you use the term free software instead: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikiped.../Free_software

Chances are my reply didn't either, but hopefully it helped you understand that attempts to issue what you view as a correction on this topic for the satiation of your personal pet-peeve are likely to be unnecessary and impotent even if I agree with you on a technical level.
