RE-volv launches Crowdfunding Campaign for Community Solar

[limpyhobbler]

RE-volv just a few days ago launched its first crowdfunding campaign for community-based solar energy on Indiegogo, accessible at www.solarseedfund.org. After being blogged about by our friends at Solar Mosaic, tweeted about by Bill McKibben, and featured in an article on Clean Technica our crowdfunding campaign has taken off. With just a week into the campaign, we’ve already raised more than half of our goal...

1. This is interesting, but I didn't see any examples of the specific financials of how this works. n/t

2. Yes more details would be good.

They also have this site http://re-volv.org/.

I looked around but didn't see anything as detailed as a ledger with dollar signs, if that's what you had in mind. I supposed they could be contacted through their website for more detailed info.

4. FWIW, I think the jury went wrong when they hid andreask's post.

We get plenty of spammers here on DU, but this wasn't spam.

It's much the same situation as when an author shows up in some thread about their book or magazine article. We don't call it spam.

5. Agreed ... umm ... hosts?

Can hosts "unhide" a post or is that an Admin-only thing? (Or simply not possible?)

Whilst I recognise that a reader can click on the link to see what was there, I feel
sorry for andreask that their only post in DU has been hidden ...
