Walter, I'm really beginning to suspect that you're clairvoyant ! How did you find out about this gamedev thread ? ( http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?whichpage=1&pagesize=25&topic_id=418236 )

Thanks for the fixes ! :-D

I think you're almost squashing more bugs than are reported atm ;)

Anyway, the latest releases have had a download speed that is between 1/20th and 1/10th of the speed of the past (at least I know a couple that have experienced this). Not a big problem for me, but might signify some troubles serverside?

There has been a big upsurge in the rate of new bugs being posted in the last month. Generally, that implies a big upsurge in the uses people are putting D to!

I'm not sure what it was, but 0.168 broke Pyd (it would compile but the resulting DLL wouldn't load), and 0.169 fixed it again. So, uh, kudos!

It won't, but getting the tail-recursion optimization back will ;)
