I am sorry to see many D community projects and libraries dead as they are targeted for D1 and not portable to D2, or just locked to specific version of D and not transferable to latest version due some bug.
I am sorry about Tango apps being incompatible. I cannot do anything about that.
I think it is possible for community to make all necessary libraries and tools once the D is "carved in stone". I suppose D1 is attempt to do that, but not having ready substitute yet (D2 not working as advertised) and D1's clock ticking away, it is risky gamble to say at least.
What issue with D2 is blocking you?
To put it plain and simple, I have strong feeling D development is motivated by desire to add latest ideas and features and not by desire to produce practical and stable tool.
People often write postings, where in the very same posting, they'll write that they absolutely must have new feature X now, and that no new features should be added.
How would you resolve this?
