Research eRegs by National Archives

[rfultz]

Exciting development in the realm of eRegs by the National Archives, thanks @akort for pointing out this new site.

It’s still in beta They are out of beta, and looks very promising. It has a lot of the things we desire such as linking to a specific regulation and a comparison tool to see how a regulation has changed across time. The best thing about this is that it’s opensource with an API and github repo! Check it out if you have time.
