There are groups on the DigitalMars news server that are obsolete

I forgot to mention - the pros and cons of whether the string interpolation is
compile time or run time is a critical decision.

DMD does not support VS2017. Therefore I cannot link x64
applications. DMD installer only offers to install VS2013 (what I
am absolutely not going to do, as that would be a real shame with
the disk space it consumes).
Any plans for supporting VS2017?
