I see no problem with asking dub questions (or DWT or GDC or LDC
questions) on this forum or d.learn. Sönke will see messages here as
well.
I think it's more that having a dedicated forum lowers the threshold for
asking and makes it easier for users to browse for answers in existing
threads. In the d.learn and d.general topics get buried real fast.
Anyone looking for a previously asked question is going to have to use a
search anyway. I've never been to a forum to ask a question, and just
looked at the most recent topics to see if anyone's ever asked/answered
that question.
It also makes Dub more official. I think all the "official D" parts
ought to be integrated in the main site. Less confusing for newbies who
try to figure out what tech they should get started with.
Dub has a dedicated subdomain: code.dlang.org.
It has a link on the front page: "DUB - The D package registry"
I don't think it can be more official than that.
