Yup, since the most recent one was only 11 months ago, the current repost counts as a dupe.

Reposts are fine after a year or so. This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.

Interestingly, your last comment was 3 years ago. People who are busy building things don't have time for forum activity.

Did you know that your article was one of the reasons I quit my paid job to attempt to find a solution for open-source funding?

At that time, I was exploring existing solutions like Gitopia, Tea, or even Polar. I believed that these solutions would not meet your needs, so perhaps it would be a good idea to create a solution that would.
