the latter is unforgivably ugly.

In previous discussions, it was agreed that future replacement modules would
simply have a number appended to them like that (e.g. std.xml2 or
std.random2). I don't think that that decision is irreversible, but unless someone can come up with a much better name, I'd expect it to stick, and it has the advantage of making it very clear that it's replacing the old one.


Yeah, I don't want to get into this discussion again. There are better ways (at least IMO :), but they were not favored.

Once std.process2 is accepted, and in use for a long time, we can probably deprecate std.process. But I don't know if std.process2 would then be renamed. I can't remember what was decided.
