DSource in the headlines? In 2014? Shocking, I know. Since Brad is no longer an active D user, and the website has had spotty uptime lately, I've offered to take over the hosting and any maintenance. Although opinions exist that the site should simply be shut down, I think archiving it would be a better approach. The website has historical relevance to the D community, and might be required to get ancient D code running again. For example, we could make things read-only and make it obvious on every project page that "we don't go to DSource any more". I can't exactly undertake a large redesign, but we can discuss our options. Planet D (planet.dsource.org) is moved as well, and should continue to operate merrily. If your D blog's not there, let me know! |

I wonder if the projects themselves can be migrated to github - then if someone wants to update one and add it to dub, that'd be cool. > Planet D (planet.dsource.org) is moved as well, and should continue to operate > merrily. If your D blog's not there, let me know! Pretty dazz! |

If you can add an rss feed for specific categories he could just add that. I know he's done that for some of the planet D blogs.
I'd like to see yours included. It's good reading.

Any way you can provide an RSS or ATOM feed for just the posts tagged D?

Posted in reply to Vladimir Panteleev | I think DSource should not be shut down, but instead modernised and open for new D-based projects. We, old D programmers, just love DSource! :) |

Don't know any way other than maybe modifying the generator I'm using, but I don't have the time to do that in near future (I know little about how RSS works/web dev in general so I'd have to spend some time learning that too).
I'm using a static site generator (Tinkerer) based on Sphinx/ReStructuredText (think Markdown on steroids), so the blog is actually a static site.

We, old D programmers, just love DSource! :) the problem with current dsource is that keeps poping up in first google results. yesterday my mate asked me why we don't have gtk+ bindings for D. i answered "just google gtkD", he did it and the first result was dsource link, which points just to svn repo, w/o docs and such. this is disaster. |

Erm, that was due to a misconfiguration from a last-minute change. Sorry. Fixed now. http://www.dsource.org/projects/gtkd/ |
