Genius, pitch your service disguised in a genuine question. :) I know it's not out of the realm of possibility on HN and I do like that HN is not adverse to shameless promotion but my first and foremost interest is in the opinions of the group on how to parlay this into what the team wants. As we just keep circling this subject, one of our big contracts is winding down again so the subject has once again come to the forefront. All of us have no doubt that we will replace the contract but no one is thrilled about the idea. There is a deep desire to have some ownership or at least some long term interest in a codebase. Other thing that might work is to get into contact with recruiters (I know, I'm out of a limb). You can let them know that you have a team of devs ready to go that they can fall back on in case of emergencies or what ever. This has been the majority of our leads, we have about 4 recruiters that when they see a pattern of hiring by a company tend to recommend getting in contact with us, they of course take their margin of the top of the team but it is less than standard recruiting arrangements. One of the things about us is that money is equally split among the team. None of us take a cut off the top.
