Probably it is because of your browser cache, likely will be
updated after a while.

We don't have documentation for mir-glas library, only for mir
(backports) package, which has mir.glas package.
I don't know what to do with mir-glas, it is too good to be
forgotten, but I don't see a commercial perspective in it.
Why not? Where does it fall short of being useful?
For my work, I use `mir-blas` - ndslice bindings to CBLAS API. It
is faster to write binding rather than finish BLAS implementation.
It is useful. And I think it is very promising for Dlang
promotion and can really involve new companies. I will be happy
to finish it if a company sponsors the work. Companies like
CPU/GPU vendors or companies that require slim and fast BLAS
implementation will win from this work. However, I have no idea
how to sell mir-glas, it is more complex to find a client rather
than finish it.
