I just updated the LATEST file. Should be usable now.

No plans yet.

Yes, it is. The PR was against lts-master. See 
https://github.com/ldc-developers/phobos/pull/31.

It depends at which part of the work you look.

Merging the frontend hasn't changed. If there are AST changes 
then the LDC code generation has to be changed, too.

Writing and extending the CMake description is now a bit harder 
because you have to consider an additional language.

And personally I am developing on Windows with VisualStudio. I 
now lost the ability to debug the frontend. Yes, this is really 
hard (for me, not for the GDB folks)!
