This isn't a release candidate, in particular the documentation
needs work, but we need to shake the tree for any undetected
regressions.
Further beta announcements go in the dmd-beta mailing list.
Note that this release contains:
29 enhancements
307 dmd bugs fixed
14 druntime bugs fixed
73 phobos bugs fixed
The sizes of Phobos binaries increased by a third for every OS
except FreeBSD, which seems to have remained the same (created 17
Feb 2013). Aside from the FreeBSD case which is most likely a
bug, is that an expected increase, or they are just compiled with
some extra options for the beta, and will shrink again when the
release comes?
