Status of the project

[do-me]

Hey folks!

First of all: this project is absolutely awesome and incredibly useful. The UI is so easy to use for such a complex topic and really makes laypeople understand what Gerrymandering is. Much love for all the work you invested here!

In the past years I tried to contact you a couple of times (Email, Twitter Sep-9-2022 etc.) but without success. I see that there are open PR's from 2020 and that - from my perspective - the core issue of this project #140 how to use the tools here with other data goes still unaddressed. I guess it's might be also considered a value that you are trying to provide the tool for the US only and don't lose your focus.

However, consider the value this project could provide if you truly separated concerns:

• The tool(s) on one side (without US focus)
• The data on the other

This would allow other countries to build on your amazing work and in return help maintain and improve it. You already did most of the effort I guess (https://districtr.org/import-export). Is there any reason not to offer non-US data?

Is this project in maintenance-only phase or still actively developed? If so, are there any plans to cooperate with international partners?
