@Timothee Cour, your attention is required on
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=11972.
@All Core Devs, request a coordinated effort over the next
week as we
gear up for this release. This has been a long process and I do
appreciate your support. The aim here is to publish a final
release by
next Monday with all outstanding regressions addressed. I will
produce
multiple RCs over the course of the week if required, however,
the
target release date for 2.065 is 24 Feb (EST).

Using tilda in the qualifier part of the version is not
acceptable. I
thought I was clear about this. Well, at least for
RedHat/CentOS/Fedora/(open)SuSE/Mageia - I do not know about
other
distributions...
Speaking about Fedora, DMD will never get into their official
repository.
I've spoken to them. Even the RPMFusion guys were sceptical.
Reason is
simple, every new mirror would need to request permission from
Walter to
distribute DMD backend.
Perhaps they are being too picky. Walter gave permission to
FreeBSD ports in a single email and they distribute the dmd zip
from their mirror as a backup, though I'm not sure how many other
mirrors they use for this. I think it might even be bundled up
in the official CD, which is probably distributed across many
mirrors.
