Congrats, but why are there still 6 Regressions / 34 Blockers open in Bugzilla? At least with the one that opens from the main D page /resouces/bugtracker.
Is this a different tracker that's not up to date?

On a side note, you guys are fast in fixing regressions I happen to stumble upon and report. Thank you for quick responses! Ivan Kazmenko.

Regarding regressions: I think the policy is to not release with new regressions. That is, regressions from before 2.068 don't block the release. Regarding blockers: As far as I know, "blocker" doesn't mean a thing for releases. I think many of those have been labeled "blocker" because they block someone in their work, rather than blocking a release.

Attributes for auto return function are now inferred." This is a bad idea. What if I want/need to specify the return type but still want attribute inference? What if I don't want attribute inference, but I want the return type to be inferred?

Only, why `std.digest.hmac` hasn't been included in this release?
