times out!

There should be a automatic link checker which reports dead links 
to the admin so they can be handled. It is very unprofessional 
for a site to have dead links... specially when they are 
obviously important links.

It's been almost 4 months now ([1]) that downloading nightly build is broken. You'd better build dmd yourself if you really needs it. [1] https://forum.dlang.org/post/bxlomoaykzfqlxtyxlce forum.dlang.org

They were down for three weeks in September while they were switched to a new build infrastructure. http://downloads.dlang.org/nightlies Also, may I remind you that it's not a company and all that work is done by volunteers. If you want this to change, you might want to consider a donation.

Well, it's AWS S3 and they still don't support SSL for free on their buckets. Change the link to use http and it will work: http://downloads.dlang.org/nightlies/dmd-master/dmd.master.windows.7z
