Thanks a lot for -lowmem, copy ctor and DUB single request! I don't understand full the new `dub init -t custom-dub-init-dubpackage` capabilities, the `custom-dub-init-dubpackage` has to be a package name on the DUB registry? Any dub package can now define a sub package init-exec which will be used to create an app skeleton. Just use the package name as argument -t in dub init command. Kind regards Andre

Finally dmd will no longer be a laughing stock on low-memory machines. Very glad to hear of -lowmem. T -- Winners never quit, quitters never win. But those who never quit AND never win are idiots.

This beta started a little later than planned because we had to solve a FreeBSD build issue (https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/9569#issuecomment-484017911). I'd still try to ship the release on May 1st unless we figure out that more time is needed to fix regressions. http://dlang.org/download.html#dmd_beta http://dlang.org/changelog/2.086.0.html As usual please report any bugs at https://issues.dlang.org -Martin Thank you so much. The -lowmem switch finally enables usage of D in CloudFoundry (your application is usually compiled on CloudFoundry and you very likely have a limit of 1024 MB). Also I currently try to convince the people from Codeingame to support D. They have a limit of 768 MB. The import std; will also become quite handy for the Codeingame use case. Kind regards Andre
