Have you read the DMD PR thread (not the DIP itself)?
It was a mockery executed by Atila accompanied by silent
Walter's and Andrei's ignoring.
I am not sure if I read the same one, I didn't perceive it as
mockery. Atila seemed to imply that a bigger language change is
needed and that this DIP would only fix one bit of what has to
change? Then he tried to suggest alternatives. Maybe he did not
understand that it makes the compiler look buggy. The
communication was not very clear though… Looked more like
people talking past each other than mockery.
Or that was just a very good mockery. But as was said that
doesn't really matter for the result we have.
I am using D last 11-12 years. This case wasn't an exception, it
was a Dlang failure among consequent others.
