Maybe that is the same reason why D has a issue drawing in new non-C/C++ developers?
What's your evidence for this? I'm curious. Not that the composition of new adopters matters particularly - it's just interesting to know.
Well, i do not have the time. Want me to donate? Does that solve the issue. No ... because there is no clear infrastructure in place to actually hire people to work on the language and the environment.
If you're serious, put up some money and maybe I can match it (and there is a decent chance one or two other larger commercial users might contribute also). One doesn't need much infrastructure to organise things, BTW. I have a private gitlab instance and a way to pay people and we're already trying to make the ecosystem a better in modest ways - for example we have already contributed back our internal changes on our own fork to dub.
