Hi,
I am proud to announce a new major GCC release, 15.1.
Thank you Iain for your work. gcc / gdc are my primary compilers,
and having them is so easy to use on Linux thanks to all your
work,
and distros just shipping it out of the box.
For the full list of notable changes in other languages and
targets, see the [GCC 15.1
changes](https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-15/changes.html) page.
There:
Support for the D programming language has been updated to
version 2.111.0 of the language and run-time library. Full
changelog for this release and previous releases can be found
on the dlang.org website.
I think the D section in GCC changes always lacks details.
I think it is not enough to just reference to D changes on some
other website.
Most people do not even know D is in GCC, or by short section in
GCC changes
notes, they think that nothing is happening with D in GCC, or it
is abandoned.
I think it would be good to actually mention major work and
changes since previous 14.x and 15.1. And if possible do so in
the next versions.
Cheers.
