Windows bin folder is empty. I'd post on the list but I'm not sure it's working at the moment.

Looking much better. I extracted this beta and the last release, and diffed the result of `dir /s` to see what changed. Some of these may be intentional, thanks to problems with the old zip - There are .DS_Store file scattered around now, these should be removed - This does not have the right version of optlink - has 8.00.13 should be 8.00.15 (check it's 223,260 bytes) - dmd2\windows\lib64 is gone... - gained phobos\std\typelist.d - lost a bunch of files in dmd2\src\druntime\src\gc - XXX\dmd2\src\VERSION now has a windows line-end... not sure if this is a problem or not - libcurl_stub.c appeared in XXX\dmd2\linux\lib* - XXX\dmd2\html\d\phobos\phobos.html disappeared

It's a problem. There cannot be line endings in it.

The one in the git repo has a unix line ending.

So far I am not finding many bugs in this. But when is the work on 2.066 going to start? There are many patches. And what's the focus (if it has one) of D 2.066? I suggest to warn/deprecate all that should be deprecated (built-in sort, old operator overloading, etc), and introduce some of the little breaking changes that we think are good (like implicit joining of adjacent string literals, etc).

Let's get 2.065 released first.

First fish operators, then complex numbers /me thinks. Also, wave farewell to any complex library C bindings. :) Iain.

Can we *please* have a well-established, useful, naming scheme for tags and packages? 2.064beta3, 2.064beta4, 2.064.2, 2.065-b1... Are you as frustrated as me? For starters, you guys should first decide should we have micro part of the version at all? (major.minor.micro-qualifier) Please decide a schema and all cases should be covered by it, including betas or what I would rather call candidate-releases or release-candidates. From a standpoint of a RPM author - what I refer to as the "qualifier" (that is how OSGI names it) is basically a build-number of the package. Sometimes we, package maintaners have to rebuild set of packages because some configuration parameter had to be changed, or some file was missing, etc. Upstream should never specify this value. What upstream people should specify are major, minor and micro values. So, whatever you name your beta/rc/cr etc, please stick to the naming convention, otherwise it is going to make our life difficult. I propose you name/tag the latest DMD package like the following: 2.065.rc1 . When release comes up, it will be tagged 2.065.0 if there are 2.065 hotfix releases, they should be tagged 2.065.1, 2.065.2, etc. This is not my invention - smarted people than me come up with this, for a good reason. -- Dejan Lekic dejan.lekic (a) gmail.com http://dejan.lekic.org

I was just in the process of addressing this. Based on recent issues with using the packaging scripts, I've changed the naming convention as follows: That should solve any issues you may have.

That is absolutely briliant Andrew! Now we can use my SPEC file to build new DMD RPMs whenever there is a new release (tag) on GitHub!
