I really like the compiler diversity.
Me too. Having 3 major implementations is a great source of
strength for D.
This needs to go further, currently there is no up to date, high
performance, cross architecture compiler.
The way I see it is to integrate one of the compilers, best
candidate is LDC, in the release cycle.
I know that LDC is really close to get to 2.70 level, if mainline
will only be for regressions and bug fixes for a while, there is
a good chance LDC could catch up and be part of the daily
merge-auto-tester loop. This will lower the pressure to
constantly merge from LDC and allow to focus on other parts of
the LDC compiler.
Can this be attainable?
