Actually how is the effort of porting dmd to D going, any idea
when we could start playing with it?
It's going quite well. The D version passes the full test
suite on win32,
and can compile itself on linux64, as of this week.
There are some instructions here if you're up for building it
yourself:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/1980
I think we're about two releases away (in terms of remaining
work) from
being able to ship ddmd on all supported platforms, and one
more from
switching over to D completely.
Unfortunately, it may take much longer (or never happen),
because I am STILL
waiting for Walter to move on

Thanks for the update. Great work.
I might have some time to play with it during vacations.
