[dcphp-dev] Re: Technical Angels

It would require same kind of due diligence as VCs do, and most of the
developers do not have experience, time or interest to do the required
due diligence. The important question everyone will ask: how committed
you are in your venture, and how much you have invested.
In this area, its not easy to find a technical co-founder who work on
sweat equity. I guess once you have a tractor, than some people will
be willing to join you on partial salary partial equity.
