Not at all. I think sharing code/collaborating on projects will have its issues that I haven't figured out yet. Of course people dont want their IP stollen, but also you might be able to make some kind legal bond. I definitely don't think this is open source only.

I had a talk with the first user and he seemed to understand this as a bridge to start working on Node.js. What he wanted was any concrete opportunity to work on anything, and didnt care about being paid. He signed up as a junior dev, but really is a senior contract engineer.
