Then, I want to use D-YAML, which depends on std.stream. But std.stream is completely deprecated, with no clear path for me to see to replace it. That's really bad, and it also means I can't compile my code with making the use of deprecated stuff fail the compilation.
Deprecations are warnings by default. Using deprecated stuff shouldn't fail compilation unless you're using `-de` (dmd flag).
E.g. wile I welcome the deprecation of std.net.curl in principle (having to link against an external library in the standard lib is odd), announcing to drop it before any replacement which offers feature-parity is written is bad
I don't think that has been announced. It's only been discussed, no?
For D, I haven't found an "in a nutshell" tutorial, and needed to read a bit more documentation and employ my existing C/C++ knowledge in some cases. Having something like the Go tour for D would IMHO be an wesome way to attract people to try D.
That's being worken on: http://tour.dlang.io/
