Sounds like you're missing the point of the group then (or that you're asking us to change the name to HackerNewsContractors). The whole idea is to have a place to find quick contract work for bootstrapping, without all the noise from full-time gigs, hobby projects and people looking for "technical co-founders" as a way to convince you to work for free. I'm sure you could start a HackerNewsHobbyists group alongside this one and it would do quite well too.
