A friend recommended this article:

I found it awesome and would recommend to anyone in this
community. Worth a close read - no skimming, no tl;rd etc. The
question applicable to us - where are the best leverage points
in making the D language more successful.
Andrei
I don't have much influence on the first 4 types of "leverage
points" in D, but I have a suggestion for a new "rule of the
system" (5th most important type of leverage point). Require
reviews from any user before merging their pull requests.
There's a number of ways you could implement the requirement,
maybe every PR that a user creates needs to have at least 1
review of another PR associated with it. You could require more
or less reviews depending on the size of the PR queue. You could
also look at developer's "review to pull request" ratio. Just to
get an idea, I wrote a script to calculate some of this data
(github.com/marler8997/githubstats). Here's the data for dmd,
sorted by review to pr ratio:
user review/pr reviews open_prs
merged_prs closed_prs
