Why not just open source your code (MIT-licensed perhaps), then give away the domain in one month to the person who takes it in the best direction? That would be easier than trying to evaluate people based on a HN comment and would almost guarantee a more fit selection.

I'll let the highest ranked submission decide what to do with this. At that moment it looks like that's you. :)

Let's give it another 30 minutes and make a decision at 3PM PDT.

Since there seems to be a tie, between this idea and another contestant below, I'd like to transfer all my points to this idea :) (as much for selfish reasons as the public good).

Also other comments suggesting the same things have points which they should get! :D

Done: http://github.com/srosro/tehcrowd/tree/master

In a month if anyone has built something cool with this code and wants the domain send me an email: [email protected].

Thank you! I was going to ask if I could look at the source code to learn from, and now I can!
