I don't have a view on the articles that are republished - I think it comes down to the case-by-case situation between the blog post writer and Hacker Monthly (some bloggers are pro writers and thus kind need to be paid others are blogging for fun and would enjoy the extra distribution).
I'd be interested, however, in seeing the comments left on HN licensed as Creative Commons-With Attribution. I'd personally be happy for commercial use, but I can see an argument for Non-Commercial Use only license.
Everything you write here is being ingested into BackType and a load of others places and being used for all sorts of stuff so why not just assume that comments belong to the ether and be done with it?
