We haven't decided when exactly to meet up yet, but we're looking to meet up sometime during the week of the 11th - 15th (probably on Thursday or Friday evening) and figured that we should see if anyone here was interested in showing up and would thus have some stake in when during the week it happened. The current plan is that the meetup will take place at Symmetry's main office in Chater House in Central Hong Kong. - Jonathan M Davis [1] http://symmetryinvestments.com/about-us/ Some open source dlang stuff whose developement was paid for by Symmetry: https://github.com/kaleidicassociates Of note is https://github.com/kaleidicassociates/excel-d which Atila talked about at dconf this year. We have a date and time: https://www.meetup.com//Dlang-Hong-Kong/events/243198527/?showDescription=true Sorry to those who can't make it, we really wanted to make it after the Codeaholics meetup

I'll stop putting out my own cross-compiler builds, though I'll maintain the native ldc package in the Termux package repo, once that's accepted. If you want to build full OpenGLES GUI Android apps on your Android device, this wiki page shows you how to do that too. You too can be one of the elite few building mobile apps on your mobile device, and in D! And there is now an ldc package in the Termux Android app, updated the wiki page to show how simple it is to install ldc on your Android device now: https://wiki.dlang.org/Build_D_for_Android#Native_compilation_2 Make sure to tell everyone you know how easy it is to write D on your Android smartphone or tablet now, just like the Go people have been enjoying: https://mobile.twitter.com/mattbostock/status/896923877711814657 The Termux twitter highlights those now happy about using Node, Clojure, or Scala on their Android phone, hopefully D is next: https://mobile.twitter.com/termux Next up, getting D working on 64-bit ARM devices, which I recently got access to. David has been working on it already, hope we can get that done by ldc 1.5: https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/2153 rdmd and dub are now bundled with the native ldc package for Termux, so you can easily write small scripts in D on your phone or build and run tools like DScanner from the D package repository at code.dlang.org. For example, here's how you install ldc and run DScanner on your codebase to count how many lines of D code it has, all on your smartphone or tablet: apt install ldc dub fetch dscanner dub run dscanner -- -l your-code/
