Tango 0.99.3 Triller released

[Lars Ivar Igesund]

Dear D community

The most recent version of Tango is now available for download. Named after
Peter Triller for his robust Unicode classification & transformation
contribution (toUpper, toLower, toTitle, isX, etc), this release contains
several other notable additions and improvements:

 * DMD builds no longer generate libphobos.a/phobos.lib, but instead utilize
the -defaultlib switch. This enables phobos to install side-by-side with
Tango
 * full-featured tango.util.time.ISO8601 from Deewiant
 * tango.text.Unicode, courtesy of Peter Triller
 * new tango.io.stream KISS package, exposing various convenience wrappers
and filters
 * VFS (1) is functional and awaiting Zip support. Are you interested in
writing a webDav or FTP driver?
 * Preserve GC block attributes across reallocations, resolving some issues
with void[] resizing
 * Formatting with Layout now works on X86_64, thanks to David Brown
 * Support for DMD 1.023

Also note that there is an experimental D2.0 branch in our repositories now.

For a complete list of changes please see
http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/0_99_3_Changelog. We welcome all
feedback and testing.

We are always looking for new participants, so feel free to contact us via
the page linked below. In particular, we are looking for someone to help
drive the online presence via our Trac pages, and for additional VFS
adapters.

Tango.Scrapple at DSource is functioning as a place for Tango compatible
code, and as a staging ground for future inclusion in Tango.
