profit-sharing with indie projects

I know most indie projects have this setup. That everyone works on the game for free, and shares the profits up if it is published.
As an idea its great, but I don't know how to do it, how to divide fairly and the legal side. Particularly w... |

Advice on running an indie team

Scythe Physics Editor

Multithreading in a game & boost
|
Thanks for all the helpful replies.
