I've been a freelance teacher/tutor of one form or another for most of that time. These days I do very little actual teaching and mostly get paid to edit research papers, help high school students with their homework (I started teaching one kid when he was 6 and he starts high school this year), and otherwise talk to people in English two or three hours a week.

One thing: "Common best policies" in the list of benefits is an awkward phrase; I'm not sure if the intention is something like "Common best practices" or "Common branch policies". --Ryan

Out of curiosity, do you have a strong use-case to install/update dub separately of the compiler? I don't even use or need latest as of yet. I need to download the exact same version in my scripts nevertheless. I just saw that it was not updated and wanted to let you know. But I package dub and the tools as a separate package from dmd. Archlinux is doing the same and I find it reasonable. dub and the tools should be buildable with other compilers too and one day I might switch to ldc as the default compiler for the distribution because of speed.
