And continuing to tweak APIs and the like for minor improvements won't help with that. Yes, it's still the case that too much breaks from release to release, but I believe that that's mostly an issue of compiler regressions at this point, and those only get caught if enough people try the beta (which is why some have been pushing for Walter to announce the beta in D.announce rather than just in the beta list, which he's done this time around). Even if the situation isn't yet where we want it to be, it _is_ improving, and we want to make sure that the decisions that we make encourage stability so that we _will_ be considered stable in the near future.
I have not so much problem with the breaking in it self. It's rather that there are several people here pretending D is stable.
