I mean), because you say "stable updates" and I don't count D as stable.
I'm asking because I need to decide on which branch (master or gdc-4.8) to
use for the Archlinux package (gdc-git) that has to provide the newest git
version of gdc, so if there're going to be improvements or support for new
D versions in the master branch that won't be going into the gdc-4.8 branch
it'd be good to know.

I'm kinda hoping to push the notion of D front-end minor releases again,
which would include all the latest bugfixes of the current D version, but
any new feature or breaking chances would be omitted.  This would be
suitable for gdc because putting on a new release of the front end is too
much hassle as it stands.
