Thanks for doing this!

This always gets me: Don't forget to refresh the browser page to see the the new entries (rc1).

Yes, that's a trap.
I tweaked the cache control for the current beta's page, will do that the next time right away to resolve this.

To make this a successful release we need to work on the changelog, so that the rest of the world can know what we actually did. Right now it only contains a few entries and the ugly bug list.

http://dlang.org/changelog.html

Here are lists of PRs that still need a changelog entry.

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pulls?q=label%3Achangelog_v2.068+is%3Aclosed https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/pulls?q=label%3Achangelog_v2.068+is%3Aclosed https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pulls?q=label%3Achangelog_v2.068+is%3Aclosed

Please add the 'pending changelog' tag once you're working on an entry
to avoid double efforts.
Changes need to go into the stable branch of dlang.org.
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/blob/stable/changelog.dd


Also we need to go through the list of PRs and tag them with "changelog_v2.068" if anything noticeable was merged. If everbody does it for his own PRs we're done very fast.

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24 https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24 https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24

To get a list of only your PRs merged into phobos, select the author. https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pulls?q=merged%3A%3E%3D2015-03-24+author%3AMartinNowak

Where does that changelog come from? I made some pull requests against a file that I thought was the changelog to document some Phobos changes that got merged, but now I don't see it on dlang.org.

Your stuff has been moved to the 2.069 section:

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/blob/8bb4b6ea3699f4061d86dcb26459149d45a2958e/changelog.dd#L5-L16

hasUDA seems to be in 2.068, so that should be moved back to the 2.068 section.

getUDAs and getSymbolsByUDA don't seem to have made it, so they're correctly commented out for now.

I picked the hasUDA part into stable [¹] and updated master [²] and the website [³]

[¹]: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/commit/867733ebc390bef969342ee7f4dcf3e6a7218da8 [²]: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/commit/c56a592cf804999e9edf7f43b6318351b94aed0d [³]: http://dlang.org/changelog.html

That's annoying. Those three were meant to go together.

It is unfortunate, should we drop hasUDA out of stable?

This is exactly what I meant with incomplete features in the first spring review.
