I'm a bit out of the loop on recent changes to dmd and was hoping to find out what's going on with aarch64 support. Is there a page anywhere on dlang.org that keeps track of related work on this? It would be very helpful to get an idea of when dmd will support recent Apple Mac.

There will be a talk on upcoming Dconf soon.
Rumors were mentioned that not this year. Some part of the work planned for the next year

It basically works, but needs a lot of testing. This will be easier to do on a Mac Mini, so I'll be getting one shortly.
