The language per se is stabilized and in the debug phase. If you project is a library that won't have too many dependencies, the answer is yes, D2 is ready. On the other hand, Phobos is still in a state of flux to some degree (though I doubt there will be many breaking changes, especially non-trivial ones). Libraries for things like GUIs are even more in a state of flux. Therefore, I don't recommend writing a large-ish production application that needs to interact a lot with the outside world through libraries in D2 yet. A more self-contained but still non-trivial application like a compiler, a command line utility, or a scientific computing algorithm implementation, would be well suited to D2 as it stands now.
