A new version of LDC, the LLVM based compiler for the D programming language has been released. It is built with DMDFE version 1.057 and LLVM 2.6. The runtime library has been upgraded to Tango 0.99.9.
In addition to up-to-date dependencies, this release incorporates a wealth of fixes and improvements by Benjamin Kramer, Frits van Bommel, Kelly Wilson, Leandro Lucarella, Matti Niemenmaa, Moritz Warning, Robert Clipsham, Tomas Lindquist Olsen and me.

Will the development of LDC be continued? This is the project I need to switch to D – a good, reliable compiler that not only “is”, but also notices the existence of such things, as 64-bit platforms + a good standard library on board. It’s quite sad that nothing has happened in the repository for the last months…

[...] Kamm recently announced a new version of LDC, the D compiler being built on top of LLVM. I'm waiting for the day we finally get this on Windows. [...]
