There is not too much information on their home or github page. There's more hints an pointers in the documentation http://adhocracy3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/, but it would be interesting to see some kind of an overview with features, work flows etc.
Would love to see tools like this and/or others [1][2] come more widespread and commonly used in the democratic decision making process. I am naively hoping it will help engaging more people in the democratic process again in Europe. Transparent democratic discussion and decision making is a hard problem to solve that doesn't scale well in real life. Figuring out how to scale-up the number of participants with the help of tools like this is democracy's only hope for a bright future.
There's also LiquidFeedback [1] maintained by the Public Software Group of Berlin, difficult to judge how actively developed it is since they use their own Mercurial hosting [2].
It is a bit confusing, adhocracy is maintained by Liquid Democracy B.V. in Berlin, but then there is LiquidFeedback maintained by the Public Software Group of Berlin...
Pics or a demo (if the project is functional) is one of the first things a project should do if it wants to gain traction. The fact that this project hasn't (yet), to me is a big factor in predicting this will never gain any traction. Software that doesn't think about end-users fails. Software developers that don't think about end-users from the beginning will fail.
It has actually been used by the German Pirate Party and other political groups for a while now, see for example the instances at https://adhocracy.de/
It seems that they also have an older version running on Python2: https://github.com/liqd/adhocracy, docs: http://adhocracy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
