This release is absolutely massive. 41 major changes and 185(!) bugs fixed!

Thank you for all your hard work Dennis!

Now I need to get this deployed across my build farm so I can start using all that ImportC goodness.

Thanks!

BTW in changelog under dmd enhancements I noticed:

But that does not seem to be fixed, in GH or in bugzilla:

Hurray!

But some of the changes that are now in 2.111.0 are still mentioned in the nightly changelog. Is this normal or were they forgotten to remove?

Should be fixed after merging the stable branch of Phobos (which releases are built from) into master (which the nightly is built from). https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/10732

I guess the commit "Fix #20982" got picked up by the bugzilla changelog generator as a bugzilla issue, while it was fixing a GitHub issue. This is the last release that includes any bugzilla bug fixes, so it should fix itself in the future. In the mean time the current changelog could use some manual auditing.

Compiler change #1 is a fantastic addition.
