You can find find a list of changes that have occurred since the release 
2.065.0 at [1]. I'm looking for a better way but this should provide an 
good idea as to what has changed since the last release.

Request assistance in identifying non-breaking changes (fixes) for 
inclusion in the 2.065.1 point release. I need assistance with this 
because I do not have the expertise to determine what goes into the 
point release. If nothing is identified, I will abandon the idea of 
providing point releases.

A big thanks to the developers who have dedicated their time and effort 
to making improvements to the language and making this release possible.

A issues ([1] & [2]) have been created for identifying commits that 
require cherry picking for inclusion in future beta/release candidates. 
Commits not identified will not be picked.

Enjoy,
Andrew

Hi, "Private" here (ie neither Sergeant or Lieutenant, I 
"enlisted" to post this).
Where do I pose the question "Is X a bug/regression"?

And on the front page there's the big red text that reads 
"Version 2.066 Goes Beta June 30". Should this be updated to say 
"Version 2.066 Beta is live", with a link to somewhere (this 
thread?)?

Such questions are appropriate on the D.learn forum. Once validated, 
open an issue at issues.dlang.org.
