Milestone 1 of the sixth edition of Symmetry Autumn of Code kicked off on September 15th! We have three coders hacking away on D projects for the next four months. You should be reading their first weekly forum updates very soon. So here's what's happening this time around: * __Replace DRuntime Hooks with Templates__: Teodor Dutu is back for a third stint in SAOC. Not only has he worked on this project in two previous SAOCs, he's been working on it in between when time allows. [The abstract of his DConf '22 talk](https://dconf.org/2022/#teodord) provides an overview of the project (or [you can skip straight to the video](https://youtu.be/dsa8GWL6TUo)). * __Interfacing D with C++ Associative Containers__: Emmanuel Nyarko is a first-time SAOC participant who aims to improve D's interface with the C++ standard library. Specifically, Emmanuel will be working on bindings for the C++ `std::set`, `std::map`, and `std::unordered_map` containers. Mathias Lang is the mentor. * __Replace libdparse with the DMD Library in dfmt__: Prajwal S N, another first-time SAOC participant, will be working towards removing libdparse from [the dfmt tool](https://github.com/dlang-community/dfmt) and replacing it with DMD as a library. You may recall that Lucian Danescu did some work in SAOC 2022 to enable DMD to be used as a replacement for libdparse in tooling, specifically targeting D-Scanner (you can [watch his DConf '22 talk](https://youtu.be/JYkb3PjIn4c) if you need to refresh your memory). This new project will get us closer to having a DMD-as-a-library tooling ecosystem. This year's judges are Átila Neves, Robert Schadek, and Jonathan M. Davis. Thanks to Symmetry for continuing to fund this event every year, and good luck to the three programmers working to improve the D ecosystem!
