It's not entirely clear whether that refers to DMD development or development of anything else using DMD. snip I can see there being at least three possible levels to distinguish in defining what a blocker is: - blocks development of DMD - blocks development of derivative works of DMD and/or third-party compilers - blocks use of D or DMD Maybe there are others Stewart.

I'll put the existing copy in read-only mode at around 10 or 11pm Seattle time. snip For those who aren't in Seattle, from what I can make of the information on Wikipedia, that's around 05:00 or 06:00 UTC. Speaking of which, does the version you're updating to include the fix for bug 1047? I hope so Stewart.

Indeed: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.digitalmars.com/webnews/newsgroups.php Knowing PHP, it should be trivial to insert a meta tag to fix this. Though really, www.digitalmars.com should be configured to declare all text/* content as UTF-8 in the HTTP headers. Meanwhile, best bet is to stop using the web interface and get oneself a newsreader. Stewart.
