Fairly ignorant the sell a  cold website
to a community that is nicely floating on the waves.

It is not important how vague the definition
of the dnsmasq community is, important is that we have contact.
Contact about what does hold us together:  dnsmasq.

Handing ourselfs over to a website that doesn't give fuck about us,
is like putting your own head on the chopping block.

Seen the "You must come the cold website that I deem cool".
No, I haven't visited the infamous website.
Same as I resist tobacco commurcials.

URL not visited, but claiming anyway:
  The "owner" understands that a succesfull project
  is made by people with common interests.

And yes, we, this project, should discuss what we can improve.

I think I haven't told before that there
is https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dnsmasq
