3ddemo has one commit. In February 2016. I think it would be an
amazing feat indeed if a project with one version builds for
more than 2 years in any language.
I built it successfully with DMD 2.076 (I just picked a random
old version). So it's still usable, you just have to know what
version of the compiler to use. I'd say it would be nice to
record which version it builds with in some way on
code.dlang.org.
I think the first post is an overreaction, but now I'd like to
know what is the correct line of thinking in the community:
It's normal that it's not working newer versions?
I'm not being sarcastic, because if breakage is for a good reason
or in pursuit of a better language I wouldn't mind so much.
But I'd to know if breakage is considerate "normal" or
"shouldn't" happen in any way, like for example in Linux user
space (Even it's not 100%) or C++ world.
I'm telling this because I'm stuck with an older DMD version:
2.062, because the newer versions doesn't compiles my project.
