Hi!

I also made a tool which periodically monitors code.dlang.org for new packages and a notifies its Telegram subscribers.

To subscribe just write something to @dlang_announce_bot
Also it can be added to groups.

Code: https://github.com/denizzzka/paper_plane_bot

Cool!
BTW any reason why you parse the HTML and not use the JSON index?

As I know, code.dlang.org provides JSON package list without any additional info. Thus, it is need to parse every package separately by calling https://code.dlang.org/packages/*.json to get packages versions, and it is need to do for every registerd package.

Hmm, I just wanted to point out that in the time it took you to write the HTML parser, you could have added an API method to the registry:

No, because my target was "obtain working bot as fast as possible"

Thanks for your PR!
