This release includes: an -ignore switch for ignoring unsupported pragmas, documentation updates, a compile-time warning for hidden methods, 'pure' and 'nothrow' function attributes, partial ordering rules to disambiguate function overloading, std.perf cleanups, the addition of std.encoding, bug fixes, and other changes.
