Well, many of those could be implemented in Orbit, especially the
trivial ones.
The way it was worded, I thought you needed those to be in phobos or
have an implementation provided before you could start the port. It did
sound a little strange ;)
Some of them are not trivial, and I understand those (e.g. std.process
and std.xml), but things like !empty I think would not need a special
implementation in phobos for you to be able to port.
The original problem was Orbit is using third party libraries which is
not acceptable if Orbit is to be included in the official distribution.
This is according to Andrei and Jonathan.
The question then is: Which of the needed functionality can be moved to
Phobos and which can not be?
I would like to avoid rewriting large parts of the code that is already
working perfectly fine.
I also don't think it's good to include large part of library code in
Orbit, i.e. a serialization library.
