Master sports Phobos 2.071. Someone will have to see whether latter versions can be built using it.


… and some weird Frankensteinian mix of several frontend versions, I take it, maybe enough to build Phobos, but not necessarily compatible for user code? Or did you port all the changes since 2.068.2 back to C++?

All the regression fixes and none of the bugs!

The current situation is that it should be link-compatible with current upstream/stable. Enough so that when someone has the time to test, it should just be a case switching the sources and building the D version.

First of all, thank you for your tremendous work on GDC! Fellow developers and me were also pretty stunned by you maintaining a quite large amount of different GDC versions in parallel without a huge team - that's some impressive work!

What is the thing that's blocking GDCs GCC inclusion? Just manpower? Also, you were talking about "bugs" on several occasions, what's the thing with that? Is it GCC or general Phobos bugs? It would probably be awesome to have a summary blogpost or similar on the state of GDC, that could potentially also attract volunteers.
Anyway, all a bit off-topic :-)
