As soon as 2.068 is released (and the new Vibe.d released), 2.065 will be dropped, and I'm very glad for it. Working with this version has been a major pain for the last weeks, the most recent one being the compiler locking itself up for an unknown reason. I want dub to gain compiler-support knowledge at some point: e.g. automating testing for all applications in the registry, and status displayed (with automated docs). FYI Kiith-Saa build an automated doc generation website for the registry.
