The OpenVillage Network of Houses is becoming reality faster than we all imagined! We keep track of all house initiatives in this topic.
This text is a wiki, so feel free to add or update your house initiative.
(Every registered user can edit this text from the three-dots menu below, except very new users. If that happens to you, click “three-dots-menu → flag icon”, then choose “Something else:” to tell us you want to edit it but can’t. Will be fixed fast!)
