A lot of work is going on around D. However I can't really fit the pieces

Bad quality
--------------
One problem is the large amount of obsolete data (
http://www.dsource.org/projects/dmdfe )
Dsource is The place for D projects. The problem with dsource is if you're a serious
professional and need professional quality libraries and tools, dsource does nothing in
the way of supporting these types of users. The sections are filled with small hobby
projects such as http://www.dsource.org/projects/libcalc. What I'm looking for is
somehing that emphasizes the names of "important" projects. For example
standard parallel/concurrency/server/socket/vfs libraries are a first class priority. It
takes a day to browse through the list of mediocre crap.
Actually I once contacted the admin of dsource because I had the same
concerns as you have. He gave me svn access to the code of the dsource
site pretty quickly for me to fix stuff (or the a new version of it he
was working on).
Unfortunately I never got around to submitting anything back. But I'm
sure that he will be just as welcoming to you I you offer your help :)
