My existing and developing libraries support only D2 :)

For the last however long, I've been still programming mostly in D1, but
aiming to keep my libraries compatible with both D1 and D2.
But changes in D2 have made this more of a challenge. I've also been
put off switching to D2 by the wait for D1 to be finished.
Now the plan to discontinue D1 at the end of the year has been
announced. And I'm wondering what to do with my libraries.
How many people here are still using D1?
What are those of you who write libraries mainly doing?
(a) supporting only D1?
(b) supporting only D2?
(c) releasing separate D1 and D2 versions?
(d) using versioning to support both with one set of code files?
If practically everyone's using D2 now, maybe I'll migrate my libraries
to it. If, OTOH, there's still real demand for D1 libraries, I'll
continue to support D1. I might have to see how supporting D2 as well
works out. It seems I'll have to abandon the idea of keeping the code
compatible with the D spec as of DMD 1.00. It seems the reasons for
doing this never happened anyway, and there doesn't seem to be an
equivalent milestone in D2.
Thoughts?
