digitalmars.D.learn - Problem with spec doc?

Hello. I already posted this via the forum interface:
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/yqhwwpskwmkdefarjavm forum.dlang.org

But for whatever reason I didn't get any replies so I worry if it
actually reached people or not...

-- Original message --

At http://dlang.org/spec.html I read: "This is also available as a PDF
document" where "PDF document" is a link to
http://dlang.org/dlangspec.pdf. However, the PDF is just as 4 page doc
with only the TOC. The individual pages don't seem to have PDFs
either. I hope this is not intentional.

Can the full spec please be posted as a single PDF? Thanks.

Thank you very much. But this is curious -- isn't Andrei himself able
to directly commit or answer that pull request?!!

All pull requests need to be peer reviewed, even those submitted by committers. Even if the pull request is merged, it won't appear on the website until it is published. From what I can tell, it appears the website is published with each release of DMD. Andrei was kind enough to post a link to a working copy of dlang.org on his own personal website. You should be able to obtain the PDF from there. Mike

[...] Andrei appears to be very busy these days and rarely responds to PRs unless personally asked to. T -- Heuristics are bug-ridden by definition. If they didn't have bugs, they'd be algorithms.
