Awesome stuff there!
I do want to propose one fundamental change though - change
grouping / ordering to be based on potential importance to the
casual end user and not by information origin. For example, I
am pretty sure that merged -vgc thing is more important from
marketing point of view than half of actual announcements. Of
course importance judgement will be biased but it is still
better than unsorted list.
I mostly agree at this point, although in this case, I think
Dconf news and Facebook open-sourcing Warp should still take
precedence.
Don't forget that primary audience for such publication is
someone who does not code in D now and/or actively follow the
development but wants to be aware of "big things" to possibly
reconsider. Plain pull request description list will likely to
look quite cryptic.
That's true. I'm thinking that maybe the pull requests should be
limited to just a couple of the most important ones, with a
paragraph or so explanation each. Then at the end I can provide
links to each of the full PR lists on Github. Or maybe the Github
links aren't necessary at all, as it is already linked in the
introduction paragraph at the top of the page.
