2.068 - resolve remaining regressions and release
2.069 - translate to D. No new features, no refactoring. Only regression
fixes and what's already in HEAD. This should give us a solid baseline.
It also means that open PRs that address other issues will not be pulled
for 2.069.
Perhaps we should name this 2.100, to signify such a milestone.
2.101+ -
1. Take advantage of D features to improve quality.
2. Go to full lazy semantic analysis of imports, rather than the current
"analyze them all"
3. Rethink what "speculative instantiation" of templates means so we can
have a coherent process of compiling them.
4. Redo CTFE interpreter so it only rarely needs to allocate memory.
This was already done for constant folding, but now it's time for the
rest of the interpreter.
5. Get rid of reliance on the global error count. This has been mostly
done, it just hast to be finished.
6. Convert the back end to D as well.
I like it. Please continue with these kinds of posts.
