Makd (build system) and d1to2fix tool (D1->D2 conversion) released as open source

[Leandro Lucarella via Digitalmars-d-announce]

Hello Dland. I just wanted to let you know we just released the 
first D-related projects as open source.

Makd is a a GNU Make library/framework to build D projects (I 
know there is a lot of hate towards Make, so I'm not sure if this 
is good or bad news for the community :-P).

Also, even when it can be used to build D2, it defaults to use 
the `dmd1` compiler, but it can be easily change by just 
overriding a variable (see 
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/makd#d2-support for 
details).

The d1to2fix tool is a (D2) tool to do the final steps to convert 
D1 code to D2. It is based on libdparse and dfix and it's been a 
key part of our transition. Although for the rest of the 
community it might just a curiosity.

These are all dependencies to release our Ocean library, which we 
still aim to release late next week, hopefully fulfilling our 
promise to make it in June :)

Thanks, and comments are welcome!
