All the current members would be committed to working for the new company. "Hired" is probably the right word, but with a huge bonus, which you typically will not get by directly going for a job. Heck, none of the startup CEO's I work with would probably even look at my resume, if I had submitted it through normal channels. However, now I can call them or IM them and talk.

We probably bring more than just the tech skills. Building a team and delivering projects is not easy. It is about 10 times harder than I initially thought. I now have much more respect for all the small independent software consulting shops.

These thoughts actually started in my mind after I saw two ROR firms that recently got acquired. I think LivingSocial acquired one of them. That and the fact that we are not making enough money to justify the hours we put in. Slowly coming to the realization that I might not be tha good of a businessman.
