There weren't really any alpha/beta/rc states for any of that. Neither

good enough for you, then go ahead and use it. The stability was more
of an ever-progressing (and occasionally regressing) gradient.

Also, 0.x - 1.x was only an arbitrary line in the sand. Version 1.000
was just simply the name of the next regular release after 0.1xx
(whatever the xx would have been, don't recall offhand). The 1.000
moniker was more PR than technical.

Similarly, version 2.000 was just simply the next mainline release
after it was decided to fork off a separate no more breaking changes
branch (which is what 1.x *became* when 2.000 was released).

It was all definitely very much *not* semantic versioning.


Yeah, and it still continues with the same model. Although, we have had 
a few alphas and betas of individual releases.

 Port? Or wrap? Because 10K in  10 hours feels crazy. Even worse

I think after all I might just be remembering it wrong. And in fact
git log will tell me otherwise. Let's see:

$ git log --reverse --pretty=format:%ad %s

Wed Oct 30 17:13:59 2013 +0100 Initial commit.
Fri Nov 1 01:54:24 2013 +0100 Ported most code.

Of course I didn't work non-stop on it (humans have to sleep
sometime). If you stitch the hours up together I think the initial
port was done fairly quickly. But it wasn't a hard codebase to port,
it's a C codebase.

Porting C++ can be harder because you have things like C++ classes
used by value which have their default ctor called, and this doesn't
translate easily to D's structs.

 BTW: thank you so much for imgui, I discovered it yesterday and
 I'm already using it: it is so simple it is awesome, even in
 early alpha stage! It IS the most immediate gui I've ever used ;)

Cool, glad it works for you!

This is great. But is there any way to download the pictures all at

Yes, I very need imageButton. Is there any chance that they will be

No, not in near future. General usage of buttons with images is a 
`ToolBar` so there is a `ToolButton` with image. As for other controls, 
e.g. a regular `Button`, one can draw everything in `paint` event.




I need example how to draw line (small Paint) with this lib. Does DGUI
can do it? If not I would need to look for alternative...

There is no `imageButton` objects in DGui. `ToolButton` is a button 
placed in `ToolBar` and it can have an image.

Nice photos!

Here are mine. I too hope these are not too stale.

A lot of these need postprocessing, but doing that on all of them
was just too much. That's basically why I didn't post the set
earlier. But if anybody has particular photos they'd like to see
processed better, I'd be glad to.

Some are currently omitted due to the need to ask permission.
Among these are the group photos, which will need to be edited if
permission is not given.

David


Awesome!
I've been looking forward to seeing your photos all year! You
definitely struck me as the most committed photographer at the event
:)
It'd be great to see those big group photos from outside after the final  
day.


Yes, If there was an issue with permission on those, I would be surprised,  
everyone knew what was happening...

It was already posted before. But with no demo I don't see how we 
can recommend it to anyone. And having to enter credit card 
details to get to free content is IMO very wrong, especially with 
this info from their website:


-
This trial experience is free of charge—at least for the first 
ten days, with 200 minutes access to all our training courses. 
After that, it will convert to a monthly paid subscription.

-

So what if you attempt to cancel your subscription but they don't 
respond in time? It smells like snake oil to me.

The pluralsight's trial period is very restrictive when compared 
to lynda.
That 200 minutes is not enough to watch the 5 hrs video tutorial 
on D. So one has to get ready to shell out the $29 for a month so 
that he/she can watch this and a ton of other useful stuff. That 
is what I did and now hooked for good!


Anyway, hats off to Pluralsight for this course. They have 4,700 
corporate customers and 340,000 users in over 125 countries. A 
lot of them might notice D for the first time!


I wish this course is also listed under Programming Languages 
just like the course on Go. Currently it is only under C++


Btw, If I remember correctly, it stopped working after the 200 
minutes trial. I had to explicitly choose to start my real paid 
usage. YMMV.
