Yeah, not bad points. Especially licensing questions. I was asking, after all: why. Personally, though, I'd be happy if I could convince people to take time to view my half-finished code and offer suggestions, support, or improvement. I run too many half-baked public repos as is because I usually get carted off to, or distracted by, other projects. I guess the maintenance thing depends on your personality, and the state of your project. If it's under development, you don't have to worry about everybody so much. If you're trying to run a release, sure. Even then you can ignore everybody and just tell them you'll do as much and that it's only there for auditing. But if you're trying to convince people to download your native, unreviewed application? My questions were very directed, and not general, so my intention wasn't to sound so sweeping as that.
