I don't think that this is fair. Looking for a co-founder is kind of like 
looking for a life partner. You'll need to stick together thick and thin. You 
want everything to be about the idea, the persons experience, their skills and 
how well you work together. If it were any other job I'd agree, but co-founding 
is different. You're going to be a team and so working out this deal will be 
very personal.


This is also why I think looking for a technical co-founder this way is a bit 
of a folly; it's kind of like internet dating. I'd say either go with someone 
you've known for a long time, who you trust and have experience with. If no 
such person exists, then you're probably better off having an employer-employee 
relationship.
