Glad to announce the first beta for the 2.111.0 release, ♥ to all the contributors.

As mentioned in the 2.110.0 release announcement, the 2.111.0 release contains all the new features that have been piling up in the last 9 months while the 2.110 release was delayed. The plan is to create a release candidate around the 21st of March, and release on April 1st, after which we're back on track of the 2025 release schedule. 🎉

The fixed GitHub issues still aren't listed in the changelog, I expect this to be sorted out by the time 2.111 releases.

The download link on the top of the changelog seems to lead nowhere?

Thanks for noticing. I manged to generate a new index for downloads.dlang.org but still get errors when uploading it to the backblaze server, so I changed the download link in the changelog to point to the download page instead.

Great that this is rolling so quickly!
Just FYI, I really want to get this bug fixed before the release:
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/issues/20950
I think Walter knows best how it should be resolved.
It would be a shame to release with the first preview of move semantics
with such a show-stopper in it. It'd be nice for more people to share some
experience with the initial release. There's quite a lot of interest.

I've tried to nudge Walter, but I'm just letting you know that I hope we can resolve at least that one before a final release of 2.111.
