Who is BuildItHub intended for?

Continuing the discussion from Finding a developer to hire:

@Nigel

Enough said I’m in. So safe cafe would act as the public forum to attract devs, and then buildithub is where apps or sites would be available for building. Is buildithub intended for all open source or could be used as a medium for devs and entrepreneurs (for lack of a better word) to collaborate and then (the sweet part that the maidsafe team already built) upon agreed amount both wallets of contributes are coded in for a lifetime of royalties basically. I know it’s a new concept but do you and @dllasoff have a framework? Thank you

Yes, it is intended for open source teams that decide to work together under an OVN (open value network) model. We have a lot of documentation and a lot of questions for the community that I’ll be posting in days/weeks/months to come. Ask anything you like and take a stab at answering any of the posts we have under the BuildItHub category right now.

Could it work for closed source? I suppose it could but we are real keen on the idea of OVNs and making them.

Are you still pursuing buildithub? It sounds like something I’d like to help with.

I haven’t seen @chadrickm here for some time. I hope he’ll pick this up at some point because its a great project and he was a really good guy here when he had the time, but I think he’s been busy on other things for a few months.

@happybeing thanks for the insight. I reached out to him on his github issues page for the project.
