    I can imagine that happening when the motivation is external (praise). When I write open-source it's because I have to write it out of myself. Do I expect praise, kudos, fame, what…

    I think the idea is fairly cool, although it's hard to come up with a way to judge contributions. How would you solve the legal part? In the end a business entity would still need …
