Could you change the name to something more recognizable to help with D's popularity? Something like 'kardashian' might be better. Nobody really knows 'tanya', do you know what I mean? Maybe even 'madonna', so people will know that D is just as talented as others languages. Marketing is going to be key for D, so let's do our best.

Add a hook to your dub.json and then you can show off what version your binary was built from and when, eg: module awesomeness.main; void main(string[] args) { import awesomeness.packageVersion, std.stdio; if (args[1] == "--version") { writefln("awesomeness version %s built %s", packageVersion, packageTimestamp); } }
Re: [GSoC] std.experimental.xml is now a PR!

[1] It is an (almost complete) mirror of my repository [2], which is also available on DUB [3]. I would like to thank my mentor Robert burner Schadek for his great support and everybody who already gave some feedback during these months. The PR is not meant for immediate merging. Some things still need improvement (docs/unittests/...) while others will come in a second iteration (advanced DTD handling). It is meant to for some reviews, focusing mainly on the design and usability of the library. In the PR description you will find all the details, including a nice "wishlist" of things that I found missing in D during the development and some open questions. So, if you have any consideration/suggestion, drop a line here or on the PR, and if you find bugs, don't hesitate to file an issue on the issue tracker of my repository. Thank you very much! [1] https://github.com/dlang/phobos/pull/4741 [2] https://github.com/lodo1995/experimental.xml [3] https://code.dlang.org/packages/std-experimental-xml Looks good at first glance. How does it compare against established XML parsers performance-wise, e.g. Phobos XML, RapidXML, pugixml etc. Tango claimed to be the fastest XML parser at some point in time, curious how it compares. http://xmlbench.sourceforge.net/ might be a good start.

(As much as I love dub for package management, and having the *option* of using dub as a build system, dub's built-in build system just isn't always the best fit for all projects. Pet peeve: I still find it very problematic that there's really no good way to tell dub "don't attempt to build this project yourself as this project uses a different build system, so just run the following command INSTEAD of directly attempting to build". I've tried to fool it into not actually doing the build itself, but it's quite messy and problematic. It claims to be usable as a package-manager-only, but realistically, that's still only true for top-level projects that are never, ever used as a dependency, and not for library projects or tools that other projects may wish to rely on.)

Nice works, thanks. Hey, Thanks for your feedback. I'm very interested if someone would like the idea and maybe participate. It would be also nice to have some benchmarking but I couldn't find an appropriate tool for this. I found some small programs but everything in languages I don't know, so I couldn't find out if my implementation doesn't work in some cases or the benchmarking tool. Writing an own bencmarking suite would take some time that I would better spend writing the library. Maybe I should have first a simple http server. There a lot of matured tools for testing http.
