Had a nice interview with Jon Zemke, the News Editor at MetroMode yesterday. Here is the result.

Nice write up, and a pretty good elevator pitch.
How do you plan on dealing with licensing issues? Who owns copyright of stuff checked into the Hive?
How do you guys differentiate yourselves from projects hosted on sites like Sourceforge? Do you think you will have enough of a critical mass of code to kick off the reaction?
Great questions.
The authors of the software own the copyright to code submitted to DevHive.
The differences between us and Sourceforge are:
1) DevHive is a runtime
2) Developers who submit components to the Hive get paid royalties when their components are re-used.
We think we can reach critical mass if we can get the word out to enough deveopers. We are creating a win-win-win...for our customers, for component developers, and for us.
