Civic.json PR feedback

[ondrae]

Thanks for the suggestion. I have a question about this, though.

This project is outdated, it has been superceded by https://github.com/DemocracyApps/Community-Budget-Explorer (live sites at http://communitybudgets.org). That project involves collaboration with Code for Asheville, but is led by DemocracyApps, a 501(c)3 non-profit civic tech company that spun out of the 2014 Asheville budget effort.

Does the civic.json metadata file apply to non-brigade projects? Or is it only for CfA projects? Definitely would love to list it since (a) we would very much like to see others extend the platform and (b) since the live version can be used to host a budget site for free, it's an easy way to get started.

Thanks in advance.

Presumably the tag 2012 is a year? What is the significance of 2012? When it was built? When it was deployed? If you want the fellowship year, that was 2011. I’m not sure such unstructured data is valuable.
