Yeah, I said that, but I also mean use judgment.

It's also futile. Or so I've heard...

At least, I don't think we should do a release when there are open regression bugs that we have valid pull requests for. If the patches are rejected, we shouldn't block the release, but they should at least be reviewed. There are four in that category: IMHO the most important one is bug 3797 (Regression 2.038). It generates bad code and has been reported 8 times. And it's been waiting a very long time for review. https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/96 This one, which is a collaboration involving yebblies and me (mostly yebblies), fixes regression 5373 (Regression 2.051) and an ancient bug: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/362 This one fixes regression 4953 (Regression 2.031) https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/269 This one fixes regression 6398 (Regression 2.054) https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/279 The only other concern I have is, is the "disable default constructor"/"nonNull" implementation stable enough for release? |

It's not a regression, but if https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/345 is acceptable, then it would definitely improve Phobos' ability to deal with deprecated symbols and symbols which are scheduled for deprecation, which should fix some of the complaints from the last release (about messages informing users of impending deprecation). So, it would help make for a much more pleasant release, but it's not exactly necessary - particularly if we're in a hurry to release. It would be a definite improvement though. - Jonathan M Davis |

While there are still gaps in it, it doesn't break things.
