1-Page.com also had a very similar, although not as well known story. 1-page managed to be a "public startup" without having a product or (real) customers. Very much into the "fake it till you make it". Very fascinating

When joining an opensource project, there is a license and you - as contributor - are transferring the IP ownership from you to the project through the license agreement. Following that, you can kick off anyone at any time from a project. H

I'm not sure it has nothing to do with IP ownership. I "volunteer" to a million of opensource projects. However, I am not giving up IP ownership - they get transferred as part of the license associated with my work. In the ab
