The Ddoc sources for the language specification have been moved
from https://github.com/dlang/dlang.org to
https://github.com/dlang/dmd
It's common for changes in DMD to also require a change in the
documentation, but this is often neglected because it's annoying
to create 2 separate Pull Requests and keep them in sync.
Now it's a lot easier to create a complete language change in 1
PR, updating not only the implementation, test suite, and
changelog like before, but also the documentation.
For readers of the specification, nothing changed. It's still at:
https://dlang.org/spec/spec.html
The only difference in the html content is that the "Report a
bug" and "Improve this page" texts on the top right will send you
to the new location. (If you're seeing an old cached copy of the
website still linking to github/dlang.org press Ctrl+F5 for a
hard refresh)
When I brought this idea up in the DLF monthly meeting last
Friday, I got thumbs up and Atila even expressed desire to also
move Phobos into the dmd repository, but there's no plan for that
yet.
