With respect to being a successor of 2.057 the changelog looks impressive.
I'm only aware of one further regression in phobos.

So this would be a fairly good release for RELEASE (2.057) users.
With respect to being the release of the current development version going
back and forth between the import behavior will cause people to fix code they
have written since January because of reintroduced compiler bugs.
So this is going to be a disappointing release for HEAD users.
| 2.058b4 | 2.058b4 + quickfixes | 2.058b4 + real fixing

2.057 users | :| | :| | :(
HEAD users | :@ | :( | ;)

Doing a real fix would take about 2-3 days for implementation/testing and 1-2
weeks beta.
Import bugs: 313,314,625,1504,2401,2991,3254,5411,5412,6307,6554,7496
Protection bugs: 143,1161,1238,1441,1754,2225,2775,2830,6180
The big problem with the import fixes was the inadequate test suite, which
failed to reveal that the fixes fundamentally did not work.
