- Walter Bright (5/11) May 23 2018 It's been a great thread. Everyone was very nice.
- Nick Sabalausky (Abscissa) (5/11) May 23 2018 Whoa, I didn't even realize D was now used in some of the DMC++ source.

- Walter Bright (3/9) May 24 2018 Direct link:
- Basile B. (11/21) May 24 2018 At last the Digital Mars stand C library sources.
- Walter Bright (3/28) May 24 2018 Maybe. I was thinking about using DasBetterC for the DMC runtime library...
- rikki cattermole (3/5) May 24 2018 That has been a desire for a bunch of us for a while now.
- Meta (2/4) May 25 2018 That would be very cool Walter.
