Greate release!

(And three previous also :D)


But what is rational reason for this?

"Breaking change: std.stdio.writef can now only accept a format as its
first argument."

const/invariant problems, performance? Or it was too complicated?

I thing that 
    writefln("a=%d", a, "b=%.3f", b);
is more readble than
    writefln("a=%d b=%d", a, b);
(in some sense)


PS. std.* links in changelog are not working.
