So GDC seems to be dead. That's a pity.<br>
No one from GDC's team wanna join LDC's one ?<br>

2.067 frontend is outdated, isn't it ? For instance i can't build my code with dmd < 2.069 due to tons of bugs in the frontend.<br>
And when i discover new bugs, i have to write ugly workarounds, and i have to remove them when there's new version of frontend with bugfixes.<br>
And yes, keeping them to support outdated frontend versions is a bad practice.<br>
<br>
So in Q1 2016 GDC is only 2.067. And it isn't based on D frontend, so when it will be time to move to D frontend, the gap will raise. You see ?<br>

Because as far as I'm concerned every release since 2.069 is a horribly broken release, and until upstream fixes their code, there's no chance of moving forward.<br><br>However the compiler implementation itself will remain being compatible with 2.068 features. So there is no rush to bootstrap it, or to start cherry-picking bug fixes today.<br></div></div>
