The chocolatey installer for dmd is stuck on 2.100.2 as it's not 
been maintained in ages. There is a process for changing the 
maintainer of a package in this situation, documented here: 
https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/community-repository/users/package-triage-process/#the-triage-process

I asked the maintainer if they would transfer the repo over to 
dlang-community back in 2023: 
https://github.com/PxlBuzzard/ChocoPackages/issues/8#issuecomment-1786906856

It would be great if new dmd releases were made available via 
chocolatey as part of the release process so would someone within 
the core Dlang team reach out to chocolatey to take over 
maintenance of the package.
