Re: Project to improve Debian support model

Re: DISS project hosting (was: contacting Debian is too easy to get wrong)

@ Butterfly, I find it rather ironic that at the exact moment I was importing the project to GitLab I get a message in the development channel from my bot saying you starred the Github repository, only to come into my gmail and notify Ben of the change and I see you ask this within seconds of me
