          Issue ID: 18550
           Summary: Offline option for dlang.org makefile
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: dlang.org
          Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
          Reporter: hsteoh at quickfur.ath.cx

The current dlang.org makefile has all sorts of bells and whistles that take up
tons of time and requires network access, like downloading tarballs, cloning
git repos, *compiling* old compiler releases, and so forth.

Can we pretty please have an `offline` target that builds just the HTML and
*nothing* else?  All I want to do is to test local doc changes (spec / Phobos);
I should not have to download gobs of stuff that's only relevant for the actual
dlang.org site, not for local testing of doc changes.
