D-thrift package detects regressions since 2.061, where is the regression suite located?

Grrr...

Apparently nobody has been testing the D - Apache Thrift bindings
since 2.061, and dmd has since accumulated multiple regressions
that affect the correctness of the Thrift implementation. I
emailed with David N. and he said that this was quite common for
each release of dmd, and that while he used to religously
evaluate each new dmd release on the Thrift bindings, he had
simply not had the time for more recent recents to test each
thoroughly.

Serialization: this is fundamental. This really isn't the kind of
thing that should ever be allowed to break. Hence it really isn't
something that should be tested manually. It should be an
automatic part of the automatic regression detection test suite.

Where is the regression suite for D located, and how can I add to
it?

There used to be github issue tracking, but I don't see it any
more... is it hiding under their new interface perhaps...?

Thanks.
