Logdown seems to be basically unmaintained, its servers are unreliable, and it's been causing some mixed-content errors lately. This moves all blog posts to sass-lang.com itself; I'll set up redirects from the blog as best I can once this lands. Closes #401 Closes #402 Closes #403

You may not know [Marcel Greter](https://github.com/mgreter), but you almost
|
|
certainly know his work. For more than two years, he has been the #1 contributor
|
|
on LibSass and is the #2 contributor for the history of the project. His
|
|
monumental efforts, together with [Michael Mifsud](https://github.com/xzyfer),
|
|
are what has kept LibSass thriving recently and why it has reached feature
|
|
parity with Ruby Sass and is now used by more users than Ruby Sass every day.
|
|
|
|
Presently, as we are pivoting to a new development model and release cadence,
|
|
Marcel has decided it is the best time for him to exit the LibSass core team. We
|
|
are truly sad to see him go, but we wish him well in all his new endeavors.
|
|
Please join us in thanking him for all his hard work. You can follow and tweet
|
|
him [@mgreter](https://twitter.com/mgreter).

Unfortunately, this leaves the LibSass project with some big shoes to fill.
|
|
LibSass is a popular project that has more than 1.5 Million downloads a month
|
|
and as of right now, it is in desparate need of new contributors.
|
|
|
|
We have a bunch of new features planned for Sass 3.5 that need to be implemented
|
|
in LibSass and we want to do a coordinated release of both Ruby Sass and LibSass
|
|
as soon as we can. If you can write production quality C++ and want to build
|
|
parsers and compilers, we would love to help you become a contributor. If you
|
|
don't have free time, but still want to contribute, consider asking your
|
|
workplace to support the project by donating a percentage of your time.
