You don't need to do the whole talk on the video submission 
right?


Right. A short video, no more than 5-minutes. Details are on the 
site.

If need be, I will extend the deadline by a week. I've been 
hoping to have enough submissions for at least six videos per 
day, including the keynotes from Walter and Atila. Anything 
less than that isn't going to be much of a conference.


So if you guys want to see DConf Online happen, then you need 
to send me some video submissions!

Just out of curiosity, which language version will the next

__VERSION__ as 2.076, which is pretty old (whereas LDC gives 
2.093, basically on par with DMD).  Will the next GDC major 
release have a significantly-updated language version?




Likely the deciding factor will come down to how much free 
time I will get to do so.  There's still a few outstanding 
issues in dmd-master and gcc middle-end that have hampered 
progress by a few weeks.


Thank you for your work. I cross my fingers for you to have 
enough free time in the upcoming months!


If people want to share my workload on gdc, then it'll certainly 
help.

can put your submissions in for online beerconf 2020, which I'm happy

Hi Everyone,

I've started up a meeting for people to come and go as they please.

Thanks for setting it up, yet again.

I've just been informed that there are a lacking of submissions for 
DConf Online 2020, so I expect that'll be a core subject matter for this 
weekend.


I'm going to work on this... soon...

The variable p is declared outside of the template. The type of p 
is a template member, it's declared inside the template, but p

I don't understand what you mean. p is not a member of anything.



Confusing...
