Getting close to the 1.0.0 milestone, this release implements all of the major missing features except for a reviewed/cleaned up D API. The most important changes in this release are:

 - Support for SDLang [1] based package recipes. While JSON is and will
   stay available, this format is a lot more enjoyable, with support
   for comments and a much cleaner syntax. See the package format
   specification [2] for an overview.

 - Greatly enhanced "dub describe" support - includes a "targets" field
   usable for external build tools, adds a --data=... switch to output
   in shell-friendly format instead of JSON, supports a bunch of new
   environment variables for pre/post build/generate commands and more.

 - An experimental ARM build is now available on the download page.

 - Builds with DMD frontends 2.064.2 through 2.068.2.

Also new is an online documentation page of the command line interface [3], which is generated from the same information as the command line --help pages.
