I reckon it would be possible by looking at `.travis.yml` in the repository root as of the given version tag to see which versions are tested, then they can be verified to be working using [the Travis API](http://docs.travis-ci.com/api/#builds).\r\n\r\nProminently displaying this information not only helps users find libraries that are applicable to them, but also encourages package developers to use CI for their packages, as well as keeping their CI matrix up to date.\r\n\r\nJust a crazy idea, not sure how much work it would be :)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/D-Programming-Language/dub-registry/issues/comments/95413126","html_url":"https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dub-registry/issues/112#issuecomment-95413126","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/D-Programming-Language/dub-registry/issues/112","id":95413126,"user":{"login":"JakobOvrum","id":155856,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/155856?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum","html_url":"https://github.com/JakobOvrum","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/JakobOvrum/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-04-23T03:18:13Z","updated_at":"2015-04-23T03:18:13Z","body":"> We're trying to get DMD as stable as possible, which should reduce the need to lock the compiler version in the long term.\r\n\r\nGood point, although there is still a gap between the front-end used in the latest DMD opposed to the latest GDC or LDC. Of course we want to bridge this gap in the future, but until then, projects using the latest DMD often end up not supporting GDC or LDC. In practice I think very few developers limit themselves to older FE version X just to support GDC or LDC, and this would be a nice way to give credit to developers that *do*.\r\n\r\n> Also we can't seriously suggest people to test the small library with 20 different D compiler versions, because that requires too many resources.\r\n\r\nTrue, we wouldn't want to do anything that might encourage developers to use a bigger build matrix than necessary."}}
