Discussion mostly stalled with me and Vladimir having different estimate
of trafe-off between keeping submodules on latest HEAD as opposed to
only bumping those for releases. Check the last comments in

Considering you didn't seem convinced at that point I have decided to
keep this as a personal project for now and possibly raise the topic
again when it will have more tempting features (switched to more urgent
stuff for now).
Understood, feel free to close the PR while the concept is on the
backburner or in the works. To clarify: I'd initially misunderstood the
scope of your proposal and I'd be happy with something that simplifies
the overall "getting into dmd development" experience. A solid, simple
and attractive charter is key here. Naming might be important, too,
finding a good "D-all-in-one" moniker could help with traction a fair
amount.
The matter of "where do I put tools related to D development but not
necessarily part of the distribution" remains.
Thanks,
Andrei
