I would like to talk to you about a few ideas relating to lua and D.

With Lua, this can be guaranteed. You can create a sandbox where only certain operations are permitted. For example, reading files is permitted, but writing to them is not. I can also intercept all file reads and mark the files that get read as dependencies. It certainly could be done in D, or any other language for that matter. All that needs to be done is to write a program that can output the fundamental JSON build description.

SQLite-D goes beta!
It is my pleasure to announce that I now consider SQLite-D to be in Beta stage. The reader is now stable enough to read all the test tables I have been given. The fact that it took around 20 minutes to complete index-tree support convinced mt that I have chosen a solid design. I have received the request to add examples and documentation to sqlite-d. And I will do so as time permits. This project will be boost licensed. So don't be shy :) https://github.com/UplinkCoder/sqlite-d

I think its more of an xcb issue than a vulkan issue in my code, because even when I do - create xcb window with dimensions (w1, h1) - resize it to dimensions (w2, h2) (no vulkan interaction yet) - create a vulkan surface from that window - render the rendered image still has the original size (w1, h1), and I loose my vulkan device when (w2, h2) deviates too much from the original size. You probably have to update a lot of code https://github.com/MaikKlein/VulkanTriangleD/blob/master/source/app.d Do a ctrl+f vkcontext.width and you will see all the code that needs to be updated.
