On a related note, D really needs a merch shop. I don't think 
I'm the only one that wants a shirt or mug with (a|the) D logo

make paraphernalia sales far easier in the wake of 
Youtube/Deviantart/etc. which is geared toward community-based 
projects similar to D.


It's coming.


Cool!

Simply put, no. The MIT license comes with the additional

all copies (incl. binary form), whereas BSL-1.0 requires this

Fantastic news

night-shift was so kind to release it under boost license.

It's time for the annual D Blog retrospective. Including the 
stats.


The blog:

Reddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/d_language/comments/abu43a/the_d_blog_in_2018/

In a few days I'll be publishing a look back at some of the 
happenings around DLand at large in 2018, including status 
updates where appropriate. There's a DMD release to blog about 
in the interim!


Thanks for keeping the blog going.

It's always interesting to read and sometimes even inspirational 
or sparks a little bit of motivation.
