Ask HN: I have site: somoscompatibles.com it is the same concept as eharmony.com and chemistry.com. It is geared towards Mexico and Spanish but it can be converted easily to English. I haven't been able to devote a lot of time to market it but the site has been working fairly well for over a year and I feel users are very loyal to it. It requires very little maintenance on my side. I feel very confident on the code it represents about a year's work. I will like to approach Marcus, I am not too interested on just selling the site since I do not really need the money but it does seem like a good match.
So my question is how should I approach Marcus and what type of agreement do you think would be beneficial for both of us.

My first suggestion would be - assuming what you say here is true - to be concrete at what you would want out of this, if not money. Fame? A nice CV tagline? What?
Once you have that down, you would tailor the approach strategy to enable that outcome.
Yes you are right, that's probably the first question I should ask myself. I guess I would like to look at two possibilities: one just selling the software and the second one to be an active contributor to the project.
edit: grammar.
