The problem here is exemplified by the commit history: this is a
volunteer side project by a busy individual.  To progress this at a
decent speed, and thus enable D to have greater traction, there needs to
be more than one person working on this, and preferably some-one paid to
work on it, even if part time.

I am not in a position to actively contribute for the moment, sadly,
except to try and chivvy up some support to get this project moving.
How can we get more people involved? Are there any organizations out
there who could through £20,000 at the problem either as cash or by
allocating an employee to work on the project?
