Could you please elaborate?

I plan to strictly follow published D specification.
Exceptions from this rule are possible provided either of the 
following is true:
* new functionality has been implemented in DMD but is not 
included into specification yet
* specification is incorrect (has a bug) or incomplete, 
especially if DMD behavior differs from specification
* change is compatible with specification and brings some 
significant improvement (e.g., this seems to be the case for my 
decision to introduce post-processor after lexer)

Some more exceptions might be added later, but the goal is to 
minimize differences.
