i'm not sure it's quite that simple (ianal): he contracted work to modify GPLed code, apparently with no intent of redistribution, but for exclusive use on his server.
otoh, it appears what is in mambo now (judging from yur post: i didn't look at the code) is highly modified from the contracted code, so most likely (ianal) reimplements the idea, iow (ianal) is not a copy, so copyright shouldn't apply. the idea seems not to be patented
