Maybe you should ask boorad about getting access to the dmdfe dsource project.

If you intend to merge the dmd frontend on every release, the change history would be easily browsable in the TRAC environment.

And it's really just a dead project as it is now. Doesn't look like Ben Hinkle is coming back.

Thanks for the suggestion Tomas,

I contacted them at dsource and will sync it up once I get access.

OK dmdfe is back and alive on dsource.org

Just committed all the changes.

Posts like this on the announcement newsgroup serve little purpose.

You can't possibly require all readers here to remember every project by its short name. Hence, /what dmdfe is or purports to achieve/ has to be included in the message text.

Even better would be to include it in the subject line, if at all possible. For example:


     DMD Front End (dmdfe) for DMD 1.026 out now


     Dmdfe is a blablalblalblablalb intended for blalblalblalab.

     Please find introduction at http://blalbal.url
     Please find documentation at http://blalbal.url
     Please find download at http://blalbal.url

     This update is mainly about blabllabllalblalblablalblalblalbab.


Incidentally, the one who loses most is you yourself, if the announcement post is lacking.
