I think that the last time that Andrei mentioned anything about D3, he said something about maybe 10 years from now. Certainly, if we were to embark on D3 now, we'd just hamstring D2 and probably kill it. Once D2 is fully stable and well-established, we can look at what's worked with it and what hasn't and look at creating a new iteration of the language. But doing that before D2 is fully stable is suicide. We're taking long enough to reach that _without_ doing does of feature changes. We can probably add backwards-compatible features later on, but for now, the focus needs to be on stabilizing what we have, and we _definitely_ don't want to completely redesign any aspects of the language at this point. - Jonathan M Davis
