DMD 2.066.1 is missing in the Digitalmars FTP. The release candidates are present but the final release is missing. This breaks DVM.

I asked several times that it gets uploaded, but never received any response.
Let's try it again.
Binaries can be found here
https://dlang.dawg.eu/downloads/dmd.2.066.1/
or here
http://downloads.dlang.org/releases/2014/.
Please mirror them to ftp.digitalmars.com.

Yes please! The dmd chocolatey package[1] just downloads and unpacks the Windows zip from the FTP site, so until that's up, choco users won't have access to 2.066.1.

Why use the DigitalMars FTP?

http://downloads.dlang.org/ is the official place for them.

The change log link points to ftp, so just in case, that should be patched.

Because the "official" place has changed several times but the DigitalMars FTP has always been persisted and available. Also for the FTP all versions are in one places, downloads.dlang.org is divided per year, making it not as easy to fetch a given version.

We should convince Brad to drop year subfolders (or add redirects), as it makes it much harder to maintain install scripts.

year folder can be replaced by version folder. This will keep files tidy and will make easier to maintain install scripts.
