Hi, Personally I haven't built GDC but I'm really pleased about the work done to support D2, which appears up to date with DMD. I'm wondering are there plans to make tarball releases or is GDC not stable enough? I think if there were official releases it would be a step towards including GDC D2 in distros, which would be amazing to be able to easily install a completely open source D2 compiler. Thanks, Nick

Thanks, NickI don't think it's quite stable enough yet. Progress is definitely being made, but testing a few libs I wrote on it reveals several showstopper bugs, which I've filed reports for. I doubt very many decent-sized projects would compile and pass unittests with GDC w/o exposing any bugs yet.
