I think you've pinged the wrong person. I don't know D, so I'm not gonna be much help 😄 |
@John-Colvin; the one related to D |
Shouldn't be any need for immediate changes in homebrew (github automatically redirects). Will update to new URL on next release. |
As far as Debian is concerned, we need the following things that could be a problem specifically for the projects mentioned:
The most important thing we need is maintainers for the Debian packages and people willing to support them for the upcoming releases. If you are interested in helping, please join the Debian D Team - I would be willing to sponsor packages in case someone is no DD, however I don't think I have time to teach anyone proper packaging, so you should ideally have some experience with that (I'll obviously review and comment on the packages). |

CC @ximion as he was a great help in getting tilix into Debian
CC @JohnColvin as I think the existing packages on homebrew need at least an URL update (e.g http://brewformulas.org/Dfmt)
CC @foutrelis as he seems to be maintaining the dcd for Arch Linux
CC @Vild as he seems to be maintaining all the AUR packages
