It seems ldc is dead.

No, ldc is not dead. David, Alexey and I are working on it in our spare time.

But as every open source project we would like to get more contributors.

Regarding ARM David did some work but it's not yet committed.

Absolute nonsense. LDC is very much alive -- I use it on a daily basis and on current experience it often produces the fastest binaries.

(For reference, I build from GitHub source on Ubuntu 13.10, using the distro-packaged llvm-3.3 as backend.)

There is no 2.063 build for a long time.
I cannot build my projects on 2.062 cause of many bugs in frontend.

ldmd2 --help on my system gives:

    LDC - the LLVM D compiler (6f5abd):
      based on DMD v2.063.2 and LLVM 3.3

Of course, I built it myself from git HEAD.  Do you mean that there has been no binary package release of a 2.063 version?

Sounds good I will try build ldc on pi when I get time.

What is the ldcvversion of rdmd ? I use hash banging all the time.

ldc2 -run myprog.d
ldmd2 -run myprog.d

... both should work.  I think you can also configure rdmd to use either LDC or GDC instead of DMD.

I don't have a Pi, but I do have a Nexus 4 and I really should get around to seeing if D can be used on it somehow.

I think `rdmd --compiler=ldmd2` should work (unless there are some bugs, it is not a very popular setup)

An idea could be to add LDC as an project on flattr.com
and when sufficient donation is coming in then hire a fulltime
programmer in India/China/Africa.

It could also be great to have ldc on parallella.
