Andrei brought up std.v2, but this is where memory fails me.
What I do recall is that there was a bit of talk about the
std.v2 namespace and how it will live alongside std, and this
came up because Robert isn't convinced the planned approach is
the right way to go about it. If Andrei or anyone else would
like to say more about what was discussed, please post
something below.
IMO having the `std` and `std.v2` namespaces exist alongside
each other *in the official D distribution* would be a mistake,
and would make the language significantly less approachable for
new users.
Imho, current design where obsolete modules are moved from phobos
to undead is a lot better. Just keep newest stuff in phobos and
move old one in undead repo. Projects still relying on old
functionality, can easily just import old module from undead
project and continue using old functionality, until they move to
newest one.
