Thanks to all contributors for yet another good release. My personal
favourites this time must be the relaxed purity rules (yay, now I can
actually use pure), the improvements to Tuple (finally, proper
indexing!), and the fixing of bug 4465 (which may seem trivial, but which
I've been running into several times a day for a long time).

Speaking of fancy pure. When will will the std lib actually start to use
it ? I tried to use pure lately but as soon as i used phobos methods i
hit a wall. e.g why is std.string.format not pure ? i did not look into
it but in my pov it does not change any state and does just return a
value depending on the given arguments.
Most development of Phobos is done with the last released version of
DMD, not the version under development. So you'll almost never see
Phobos using features from the compiler it is released with.
