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
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
Those are specific technical priorities that hint at a strategy,
as you say, but it is better to lay out that strategy itself. Not
knocking that vision document, as I called for a concrete
document like that for years, but a conference keynote is a good
place to lay out a strategy too.
