Given that today is July 5, 2024, the publication of the C23 
standard is imminent, with the limit date for publication being 
July 12, 2024. This means that within a week, the C23 standard 
should be officially published, marking a significant milestone 
for the C programming language and for D.

Is it a good time to start planning for any necessary updates to 
our existing codebases or libraries to ensure compatibility with 
C23? Can we say that DMD will also support this in parallel with 
the developments?
