It was my impression that D Foundation has sponsoring from

Foundation and not being able to pay one or more full time
employees.
If someone has been hired to work on tooling, I've not heard
about it. Based on the number of complaints that should be a
priority. I usually work with nothing more than a text editor
so it's not an issue for me.
No one has. The work on tools happens here since 8 months:
https://github.com/dlang-community. I was in the team until
September and i can say without any doubt that there's no money
involved.
I someone is paid for making tools then it's a kind of
"Manhattan-project".
So impossible, it would split people and create tensions.
