Hows the Dlang GC these days? A year ago andralex stated that he was going to work on it[1], but I haven't heard of that since.

Someone was supposed to be working on the GC for a GSoC project, but I haven't heard any recent updates.

They're working on getting precise GC in, he's been working on it quietly with a mentor and another two GC specialists in the D community for a while :)
