Shouldn't DMD be stable enough that latest is good enough for 
everyone?
As mentioned, I'm afraid that it will look similar like: 
http://asm.dlang.org
And FWIW before I started updating Wikipedia and our DWiki even 
the versions there got outdated.

Anyhow, everything is entirely automated, so if someone 
volunteers to make the update PRs to:

- https://github.com/dlang-tour/core-exec/blob/master/.travis.yml
- 
https://github.com/dlang-tour/core/blob/master/source/exec/docker.d#L22
- 
https://github.com/dlang-tour/core/blob/master/views/editor.dt#L27

I wouldn't mind.
