  • **It looks a bit like "alpha"
  • Bravo. It is alpha.**

  • **But is it ready?

  • What do you mean by "ready"? You can use it. It'll progress. Forget about "final version" - we're on the Internet. Beta is new black.**

  • **How can I use it?

  • However you like**

  • **Isn't it a bit slow?

  • Yes, no caching, no action-oriented cache tables. Everything is raw and it'll be like that for a while. Feel free to join and fix.**

  • **Can I deploy it on my own?

  • Sure, read Installation instructions and go for it. Best luck**

  • **How reliable the data is?

  • As reliable as the data sources are.**

  • **Can I join?

  • Yes you can. Go to JuniorJobs if you're not sure how, if you're above "junior" you will know how to join.**

  • **But why not PHP?

  • Next question pls.**

  • **Can I take it and sell?

  • Of course. Invite me for a drink one day, will you?**

  • **What's next?

  • Excellent question. It depends on what you'll contribute and what others will. We're pretty open, but if you want to know my dream Roadmap, read it.**

  • **I have more questions! I don't understand!

  • You can mail me at zbigniew+openpolitics at braniecki.net if you must, but I'm not providing support for alpha tools, ya know.**

  • **Wow! You're in Mozilla! So Mozilla is involved!

  • No. I also train MMA but my club is not involved in this project either.**

  • **What you're aiming for is not possible.

  • Of course it's not. I'm just stupid. Now go back to things that are possible, live long and prosper.**

  • **What you're aiming for is easy, I did it (or thought about it) plenty of times and your approach is the worst I have ever seen.

  • Of course it is. But I kinda like it.**

  • **Did you consider using project X?

  • Is it open source? Is it hackable? Is it aiming for what I'm working on? If your answers are YES for all of the questions then pls, email me, cause I don't know about this project X.**
