However, I'd say it's because you weren't smart enough to save the previous versions just in case you needed to revert back. Andrew

I've got 0.73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 86, 87, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95

(I've probably got earlier versions on the other server as well.)

I'm quite happy to pass these on, assuming Walter has no objections.

May dsource.org could host previous versions? (Again, this would require Walter's
consent.)

It just added fuel to fire when Gold Dragan responded "Why the hell not?". My apologies! Andrew

I meant downloading the latest version of the compiler. I don't much care for the previous version. I would think "v.90+" meant versions .90, .91, and on up. I guess he should of said "v.90-" or "-v.90". I would of rather liked to have the latest as it makes more sense with bug fixes and new features. I don't really understand the reason behind wanting anything below the latest. Then again most people don't understand me so we are even.

Then again most people don't understand me so we are even. If you have something that worked in an old version, you may not want to update to a later version where it no-longer works anymore. At least in the short term. For example you may be waiting for some user to update their libs for the latest version, in the mean time you continue to use the old version. Also, in some cases newer versions of DMD have new bugs that effect old code. -- -Anderson: http://badmama.com.au/~anderson/

> I don't really understand the reason behind wanting anything below the latest. Then again most people don't understand me so we are even. Perhaps you should assume there is a sufficient reason. It might be to check for a possible compiler regression or it might be to make something work temporarily that turned out to work differently in a newer version.
