I'm wondering if Divvy is going to be hit by this patent holder: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14333957

This project seems safe, as the UI doesn't show a preview grid you can drag over.

According to that thread's comments the patent was granted in 2011 whilst Divvy was around in 2010, so hopefully it's safe.

I believe the application date drives that, 2008 in this case.
