Hi everyone,

LDC 1.0.0-alpha1, the LLVM-based D compiler, is available for 
download!
This ALPHA release is based on the 2.069.2 frontend and standard 
library and supports LLVM 3.5-3.8.

The 1.0 release will be a major milestone. Please help testing to 
make it the best release ever!

As usual, you can find links to the changelog and the binary 
packages over at digitalmars.D.ldc:

Great to hear, didn't expect this to happen so fast! The vibe.d test 
suite just passed on Linux/amd64, except for the combined unittest build 
with --config=libasync, where LDC got killed (exit code -9): 
https://travis-ci.org/rejectedsoftware/vibe.d/jobs/112590595

I guess there is not much to do about that, though other than general 
memory use optimization of the frontend.
