It doesn't work quite like that. The D Language Foundation controls it. Andrei, Atila, and myself control it only as far as we DLF empowers us to, which can change. Official parts of the DMD distribution have to be controlled by the DLF. It's unworkable otherwise.
If I remember correctly some time ago DMD hasn't been even Boost licensed. Also, DMD uses C libraries at least. I can't see why adding an open-source Boost licensed dependency is unworkable then.
