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.
I was browsing dsource the other day and I wanted to be able to sort
projects by last update date or something, to find the ones which were
being currently maintained. It would certainly be useful to sort by a
category like [alpha] [beta] [stable] etc as well. I think dsource is the
correct place to put any/all of our 'crap' but it just needs to be easier
to sort and find the things you're interested in, at any one time. i.e.
what if you were looking for a project to lend a hand to, no use finding
one which is pretty much [stable] and complete.
