Re: vibe.d 0.7.19 has been released
Related: does anyone use dub-segregated vibe.d package in Arch (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vibed/)? I am thinking about abandoning it as does not seem to serve any practical purpose currently.

Re: Programming language made in D!
What do you mean? There are a couple demo programs. I also include some individual doc that explains what the different features are. The project may be creative commons at some point. Running a program is just running the executable with the program name as the parameter.

I found a small glitch, and fixed some stuff. Here is the new link. http://www.mediafire.com/download/gkptmp52744ihqt/HarpoScriptR3.tar.gz To run the demo program just do ./main program.hs
Re: Programming language made in D!
Note this requires the SDL2 runtime libraries to be installed.

Also, after extracting the archive the folder is called release. One would expect HarpoScript/release/. Little annoyances put people off.

At the bottom of the search results page there is a 'change columns' button with the ui to control the columns to display. You'd have had to do this at some point on the old site too. I think I did the regression == orange manually in the templates and will re-do that change since I haven't found any configuration options to select the colors. It's one of the things on my todo list already since I noticed that too. :) Thanks!

Yeah, I've seen the programming without programming tools come and go over the decades. I'm not holding my breath. To me, they always seem like learn without effort and get fit without exercise pitches.

Put the source in a github/bitbucket repo perhaps? As it is, I'm wary of touching random mediafire links to binaries on a mailing list.

Re: DBI Interface 0.1.5
How about representing time as the number of seconds (0.1 seconds? 0.01 seconds?) since midnite 12/31/1999? Use a signed 64 bit int, and depend on a time library to convert it into the desired format? This allows times to be stored in a compact form, and YOU don't need to worry about leap seconds, etc. You're just dealing with int's.) Also figure out the desired time range to cover, and use that to figue out the precision in pieces of a second you are interested in. (I got into this discussion with someone before, and they convinced me that 2^63 hundreths of a second is a LOONNNGG time.) Either Unix epoch (1/1/1970) or 1/1/1900 would be dates that have a lot of existing software support. 1/1/1999 is a problem if we're storing birthdates for anything besides summer-camp.
Re: DBI Interface 0.1.5
One other nag (suggestion). Keep your base DBI and any object relational wrapper separate. A lot of use-cases don't need ORM, and separating the two parts means that adding a new db driver is simply a matter of plugging in the dbi part.

Re: Bugzilla maintenance tonight
Suggestion: A search and replace of the comments, replacing `d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=` with `issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=` That way at least most of the links in comments between issues will point to the right location.
