27/35] If you're not incorporated yet, please list the percent of the company you plan to give each founder, and anyone else you plan to give stock to. (This question is as much for you as us.)
28/35] If you'll have any major expenses beyond the living costs of your founders, bandwidth, and servers, what will they be?
29/35] If by August your startup seems to have a significant (say 20%) chance of making you rich, which of the founders would commit to working on it full-time for the next several years?
30/35] Do any founders have other commitments between June and August 2007 inclusive?
31/35] Do any founders have commitments in the future (e.g. have been accepted to grad school), and if so what?
32/35] Are any of the founders covered by noncompetes or intellectual property agreements that overlap with your project? Will any be working as employees or consultants for anyone else?
33/35] Was any of your code written by someone who is not one of your founders? If so, how can you safely use it? (Open source is ok of course.)
34/35] If you had any other ideas you considered applying with, feel free to list them. One may be something we've been waiting for.
35/35] Please tell us something surprising or amusing that one of you has discovered. (The answer need not be related to your project.)
