digitalmars.D - [suggestion] Automated one-stop compiler version chart

I was just updating a project's .travis.yml file and noticed: It doesn't 
seem we have any one-stop-shop location to check all the versions of 
DMD/LDC/GDC currently available on travis-ci.

It's be really nice if we had some auto-updated chart like that which 
ALSO listed the DMDFE, LLVM and GCC versions each LDC/GDC version is 
based on.

That info seems especially difficult to find for GDC. It's a little 
easier for LDC, since I found this page ( 
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/releases ), but it'd be really 
nice to have just a simple chart somewhere.

The GDC downloads page has this info:
http://gdcproject.org/downloads

Perhaps it would be good to add this info to the main downloads 
page:
http://dlang.org/download.html

The page doesn't have the history of versions available at Travis 
though, which is what Nick asked for.

I agree, by the way, something like that would definitely be nice 
to have. Somebody just needs to write a little scrapper set up to 
gather everything into a pretty table…

That page only has info for the latest GDC. I couldn't find the 
info for previous versions.
