I'm asking because I need to decide on which branch (master or gdc-4.8) to use for the Archlinux package (gdc-git) that has to provide the newest git version of gdc, so if there're going to be improvements or support for new D versions in the master branch that won't be going into the gdc-4.8 branch it'd be good to know. > > Thanks for your work, > Moritz
I'm kinda hoping to push the notion of D front-end minor releases again, which would include all the latest bugfixes of the current D version, but any new feature or breaking chances would be omitted. This would be suitable for gdc because putting on a new release of the front end is too much hassle as it stands. Regards -- Iain Buclaw *(p < e ? p++ : p) = (c & 0x0f) + '0';
