/* pluginsolarnews.co.uk
   Dated editorial and a regulation tracker. The hero is a status board, because
   the useful question about this market is not "what happened" but "what is in
   force right now, and what changes next".

   Deliberately not a broadsheet pastiche. Semantic status colours carry the
   meaning and the accent is used only for links and action, so the two never
   compete. Shares nothing with britain, leads or info. */
