I realize it's right before the conference, but I'd like to
put out a request for Walter and Andrei to spend five minutes
during your talks laying out some overarching strategy for how
you see D evolving. It could be during the keynotes or leading
off the Q&A panel, but I think it's worth laying a broad
strategy out there.
For D's vision as set by D's core team
check https://wiki.dlang.org/Vision/2018H1
In particular, I'd like to hear how the core team weighs:
* making useful breaking changes vs maintaining backcompat, and
* adding more features vs more simplification of the language.
It is very clear, and feel free to read between the lines, on
what might be the long term strategy
I think point 1 in the vision is very telling
1. Lock down the language definition
Sorry, I'm not understanding. To me that says the core team
values multiple implementations that adhere to the same spec.
Does it imply something else?
