The Agreement

The core team consists of a group of people, who have agreed with each other on several things:

  • 67P is sorely needed an we want to use it today/asap/yesterday
  • We can imagine this to be commercially successful, and we can see us founding a company for the paid/pro version and potentially working for it at some point (to whatever degree that might be)
  • We will take the first step and implement the prototype MVP as a side project. Most of us will come to Hacker Beach in January 2015, so we'll try to finish the prototype during our time there and then define how to proceed
  • All work done until then, and (as far as possible) forever, will be published under open-source licenses. However, we want to protect the project name/ trademark, so that people using the name/trademark commercially need to ask our permission, and so that we can use the name commercially ourselves for the benefit of all contributors (incl. non-partners/employees/shareholders).
