I'm developing a report engine for iOS devices which uses CoreData.
I wish release it with an open source license, but I don't know which is the best to choose.
These are the requisites that I need to be satisfied:
The engine could be used in commercial and non-commercial apps
The developer that use the engine must give public credits into the app
If the developer makes changes to the engine must release it (and only it) in a public repository or must send them to me to integrate them into a newer release.
Have you some suggestion?
I think this license(LGPL v3) right for you.
As Marc B said, you really should talk to a lawyer. In the meantime, you may want to visit http://www.opensource.org/ for some studying and Larry Rosen wrote an excellent book on the topic: http://www.rosenlaw.com/oslbook.htm .

So far I have been suggesting new features to http://delphi.uservoice.com
Since it is managed by Nick Hodges (who is no longer an employee of Embarcadero) I decided to report my future improvements requests to http://qc.embarcadero.com
Is QC this the right way to go or is there a dedecated Idea Share solution I am not aware of?
Just as a reference I will point one of my suggestions Add Patterns.pas to allow easily document code
Please advise which is best place to submit such stuff to?
QC is the only official place for end users to report bugs or make suggestions. While alternatives like uservoice might be nice I'm not aware of any Embarcadero employees actively monitoring that site.

I'm developing web-application (and also native iOS app) that uses images from different websites. I can't avoid using these images, so I need to know more about copyright and authorship.
So, the question is: how can I use images from other websites legally? (these images, of course, not from photostocks or other paid-sites). Interested in fashion industry, I need to use images of clothes of famous designers. If I would declare source link to each pic, will it be ok? Or may be use "User Agreement" that tells full list of used sources?
For better understanding my question, some examples: websites - news aggregators, blogs and so on.
This is a topic that books have been written about, and law school courses taught about. It's not something you're going to find a definitive answer for here.

Can you sell software built using Ruby on Rails? If so are there any pitfalls in doing so?
Is it any different to selling software built with PHP for example?
Edit: to elaborate - could I build a forum app like vB and sell that as they do?
If you want legal advice ask a lawyer. Any answer given here would be worthless, even if a lawyer did answer they are not "Your" lawyer.
Rails is under the MIT License
Ruby is under the Ruby License
In general you would find your code to be your code.

My small startup is planning to start development of a blackberry app in september. My CEO wants to register the name for the app beforehand. Is it possible to do so?
You can go into the App World admin pages and create a new application, and just not upload binaries. I'm not sure if that actually reserves the name or not, but it's probably about as much as you can do.
There is absolutely no point in reserving a name with the BlackBerry App store. Other vendors can just put up an app with the exact same names. Turst me: the Blackberry Developer world is upset by this, but RIM just looks the other way. Their store is an absolute MESS.

The tutorials for creating blackberry applications seem to be severely limited. Even on the blackberry site the samples aren't very good. I want to learn about building a user interface with form objects like text boxes, drop downs, and buttons.
I defiantly recommend RIM's Blackberry developer resource. Some really solid documentation on both topics.
Java Development
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/javaappdev/learningresources/
Web Development
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/browserdev/learningresources.jsp
For both links review the Knowledge base and Reference Docs. I would like to add more direct links, but RIM's site has a lot of cruddy user instance specific URL's (hence the edit).
