In other words: I do maps on websites, maintaining the Leaflet JS library when I can, but working on Gleo (my own JS+WebGL library) otherwise.
Long-time supporter of Free/Libre/Open-Source Software, as well as Open Data and adjacent subjects.

I'm in a #github internal group for high-profile FOSS projects (due to @leaflet having a few kilo-stars), and the second most-wanted feature is "plz allow us to disable copilot reviews", with the most-wanted feature being "plz allow us to block issues/PRs made with copilot".
Meanwhile, there's a grand total of zero requests for "plz put copilot in more stuff".
This should be significative of the attitude of veteran coders towards #LLM creep.
I'm in a conference about world globes, the USA embassy delegates are in the front row ahead of me, and the presenting professor (Stefaan Missinne) just said:
«This is the first time the word "America" appears in a world globe, only it was not America»
(A guy in 1510 mis-labeled Asia as America)
Plz remember this if any "gulf of America" discussions pop up in the near future.
