I would agree with any of those. If you link to a cool book through your associates ID, and I buy it, then I would be happy for you to get the 'referer' (pun intended) fee.

But, I think Ozymandias is going a bit far with side projects. The projects section would simply be to help people with ideas to hook up with people with tuits to do a project. You are complicating things by saying PerlMonks should have anything more to do with it than just that. If I happened to start a project, posted it here (as well as just told buddies) and a person or two from here helped work on it, I wouldn't give PerlMonks anything any more than I would give my ISP anything (after all, they supplied the connection to the internet to facilitate the project) if it were sold commercially.

Besides, why would you develop anything that isn't Open Source Software? :)

Cheers,
KM
