the new entries (rc1).

Yes, that's a trap.
I tweaked the cache control for the current beta's page, will do 
that the next time right away to resolve this.

To make this a successful release we need to work on the changelog, so
that the rest of the world can know what we actually did. Right now it
only contains a few entries and the ugly bug list.

http://dlang.org/changelog.html

Here are lists of PRs that still need a changelog entry.

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pulls?q=label%3Achangelog_v2.068+is%3Aclosed
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/pulls?q=label%3Achangelog_v2.068+is%3Aclosed
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pulls?q=label%3Achangelog_v2.068+is%3Aclosed

Please add the 'pending changelog' tag once you're working on an entry
to avoid double efforts.
Changes need to go into the stable branch of dlang.org.
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/blob/stable/changelog.dd


Also we need to go through the list of PRs and tag them with
"changelog_v2.068" if anything noticeable was merged. If everbody does
it for his own PRs we're done very fast.

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24

To get a list of only your PRs merged into phobos, select the author.

Where does that changelog come from? I made some pull requests 
against a file that I thought was the changelog to document some 
Phobos changes that got merged, but now I don't see it on 
dlang.org.

Your stuff has been moved to the 2.069 section:

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/blob/8bb4b6ea3699f4061d86dcb26459149d45a2958e/changelog.dd#L5-L16

hasUDA seems to be in 2.068, so that should be moved back to the 
2.068 section.

getUDAs and getSymbolsByUDA don't seem to have made it, so 
they're correctly commented out for now.

That's annoying. Those three were meant to go together.

It is unfortunate, should we drop hasUDA out of stable?

This is exactly what I meant with incomplete features in the 
first spring review.

If anybody cares, I've already updated my book by replacing a 
hand-written function with hasUDA. (Sometimes I feel too efficient. :p)

I picked the hasUDA part into stable [¹] and updated master [²] and the
website [³]

I have found the `-profile=gc` very useful. Thanks Walter! I think it 
deserves a changelog entry.

The following code reduced from a D.learn post seems to be a bug. Is 
that important enough to hold this release?

static if does not work although an is expression produces 'true':

import std.stdio;

auto foo(T)(T)
{
     return 42;
}

struct Vector(T)
{
     pragma(msg, is(typeof(foo(Vector.init))));    // prints true

     static if(is(typeof(foo(Vector.init)))) {
         static assert(false);                     // is not included
     }
}

void main()
{
     Vector!float v;
}
