What's the difference between:
DLI
GDMD
DGCC
?
DLI: From what I recall, an independent project that just simply
ported DMD front-end to Linux. I don't remember the details how but
it had its own backend.
GDMD: One failed attempt at getting a GCC back-end working with DMD.
DGCC: The first successful GCC based compiler, to which GDC is derived from.
You could call DGCC the LUCA of GDC

Was DGCC started from the GDMD sources?
