Yep, have been following the list as well. Did you get any chance 
to do Linux/OS X testing on 3.3 RC 1 yet? Will try to squeeze it 
into my schedule in the next few days.

Nope, not really. I had the same problem when setting up the 
wiki, …

"The LDC project aims to provide a portable D programming 
language compiler with modern optimization and code generation 
capabilities. The compiler uses the official DMD frontend to 
support the latest D2 version and relies on the LLVM Core 
libraries for code generation. LDC is fully Open Source."
