Are you volunteering to spend the time building up a list of partner companies willing to hire through them from every country in the EU? Are you also volunteering to do the legal consultations to ensure they're meeting labor law requirements in each of those countries? Or, are you asking that they let engineers spend time putting their profiles into a pile nobody will see?
This isn't a technology problem ("add EU to line 284 of config.yml"). It's a regulatory problem, a cultural problem, a sales/support staffing problem, a marketing problem. There's nothing wrong with not half-assing it.
Amen to that. People tend to forget that Amazon started off selling only books, Facebook started off exclusive to Harvard students, CraigsList started off as a local SF site, etc. Companies that try to do too much at once end up spreading themselves too thin.

We're not quite worldwide yet :-/ but we have been adding countries gradually and will be adding more soon.
So far, FiveYearItch supports the US, Australia, Canada, the UK, Israel, and India.

Why is supporting the EU more difficult than supporting any of those countries?
