Is there any appetite for something at the federal level, or would this be seen as an unwelcome intervention for something that should be devolved to state level? It's great that one city in Colorado has done something (and I'm su

Points #3 and #4 seem to be arguing that regulation is the problem here. In the UK, developers aren't allowed to build a new development (of >5 [some areas] or >10 dwellings [everywhere]) without providing sufficient affordable

Note that v3 shifts to AGPL, from GPL in prior versions. Doesn't bother me personally, but I know a lot of companies won't touch AGPL'd projects with a bargepole so this probably worth bearing in mind.

Yeah, just read through the GitHub issues thread and it's rather flimsy justification for not implementing it that seems to boil down to "because I don't want to". A real shame, since I'd always admired the project
