The only thing that made it an acquisition more than an acquihire is that we had products that were generating revenue, so they couldn't just give us jobs and regular options packages.
Our employees started at GitHub with regular options packages, but Steve and I got a little more because we were the owners.
We started down that path with free billing seats. But in the end, per seat just never felt right.
As a business owner (I have some other companies) my favorite software to pay for was everything that didn't charge per seat. I'd like my own software to be the same and thus the change.
