Yesterday was the equivalent to April, 1st here in Spain so I decided to 
write a little tongue in cheek post.

Whoever that clicked on the second link I provided could discover that 
quickly enough, because goo.gl/Ibruc2 resolves to 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_Fools'_Day#Comparable_prank_days

The format of the message was a prank but the heart of the message is 
serious enough as this thread proves.

In an open source project, communication, and treating the community 
with care is essential. And you can see in this threat the community 
feels lost.

I'm personally just asking for some info, and some timeline.

Thank you everybody for your great work and Happy New Year!
