As a result of the D Versioning thread, we have decided to create a new
organization on Github called dlang-stable. This organization will be
responsible for maintaining stable releases of DMD, DRuntime, and
Phobos.
Congratulations!
I also proposed this idea:
Also, nobody is preventing any person that considers this to be very
important from creating a fork of stable branch and applying bug-fixes
there. If this happens to be a very useful option, then it could be
accepted as a policy.
So my point of view is that it might be too early to have such policy
yet.

That is effectively what we have done here. The dlang-stable repos are
forks of the current repos and rely on them for their bug-fix commits.
While not everyone agrees that this is the right path, it's the best
compromise we could come up with ... and everybody is unhappy, I'd call
that a success! ;-)
Also I propose to have a download page with tracking statistics. This
would be a nice feedback tool for multiple purposes.
Andrei has said that he would be willing to provide this support on the
website and Walter approves.
