Hi everyone!

On behalf of the LDC team I am proud to announce the final LDC 
0.16.1 release!
It is based on the 2.067.1 front-end and LLVM 3.1-3.7 (OS X: no 
support for 3.3).

This is a bugfix only release. There are some improvements for 
the Win64 compiler.

Be sure to read the change log at the GitHub release page which 
also has the package download links:

Regarding the binaries:
The Linux binaries are built on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with gcc 4.8.x 
and LLVM 3.7.0. They work on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (or later) without 
installing additional software.

The OS X binaries are built with LLVM 3.6.2 on OS X 10.10.

The Win64 MSVC version is built with VS2015 using LLVM 3.7 in 
release mode. The distribution now contains a precompiled libcurl 
7.40.0 from http://d.darktech.org/libcurl.html. For any other 
VisualStudio version you need to rebuild the library.
You find the build script here: 
https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc-scripts/blob/master/ldc2-win64/RELEASE.proj

Thanks to everybody involved in making this happen!
