Dear Hackers,
Here is the challenge:
Please create the next killer app, and give all the rights to me so I can take all of your work and make a bundle of cash. I know you like building things, and I like making money. Seems like a good arrangement to me. I might even throw in a free T-shirt.

- reledi 14y agoYou've been going to the wrong hackathons then. If you look hard enough you'll find some where you don't need to sign anything, and if you can't find any, start planning one.
- njharman 14y agoAnd that is what this post is about. Looking hard enough.
- jarofgreen 14y agoIn my experience it's the other way around. None of the hackathons I've been to in the UK have asked for rights. I'm sure if you looked you could find one, but clearly most aren't stupid enough to try.

- geon 14y agoWait... Who in their right mind would work for free on someone else's project? And sign away the ownership of the code (non open source) for them to profit from? Every programmer I know have more ideas than they will ever have time to finish. Why would they do something like that?
