Dnsmasq wins the first BlueHats Prize! Dnsmasq provides network addressing for small networks: DNS, DHCP, router advertisement and network boot. Dnsmasq creator & maintainer Simon Kelley said: "This prize is valuable financially, but much more so as a mark of public recognition that dnsmasq is still something that's worth doing." The € 10 000 BlueHats prizes aim to place maintainers of critical #FOSS in the spotlight. #bluehats #opensource #maintainers
