Hey all
Finally, I think we landed on a great design with handling both reference (and seed) data in retrofit.

MN voters - if you're thinking of voting in midterms, here's another reason to show up. If you don't show up to vote for the amendment, your non-vote will count as a no vote. If you don't feel like showing up to vote for any candidate, you could just show up to vote for this. :)
"Part of the way Minnesota pays for its public schools is through something called a Permanent School Fund that has been in place for nearly 170 years ... schools only receive interest and dividends, not capital gains, which means that the more than 500 schools and districts getting payouts from the fund are seeing only 2.5 percent of the fund’s value."
