Will have to get that done eventually... if only there was someone who
I can trust. :o)

I don't think that would be needed now, but thanks.  Yes it would be
useful to co-ordinate bugs raised in gdc that are really bugs in D
frontend.  But this is an increasingly rare occurrence.

Last two that spring to mind go way back to April 2011:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5349
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5735


Hope you don't mind, but I have instead set up my own issue tracker to
report changes to this list, however on the initial test I did
yesterday I seem to have been getting responses back from
d.gnu-bounces with the message "Your message to D.gnu awaits moderator
approval".   I was under the impression that an email address only
needs to be subscribed to the ML to get past this block? Apparently
this is not the case. :-)

The email address the issue tracker is using to send to D.gnu is
gdc-bugzilla [at] gdcproject [dot] org.  And it is using sendmail with
postfix incase that would be a problem.   If you are able to lift the
moderator restrictions, I could send another test here to confirm all
is ready to go.
