I'm not fond of the militaristic terminology for participants. Novice, 
adept, master, maybe?

The section on safety is pretty short. I'd like to see in it:
* Guidelines for what should be made @trusted in Phobos (should we trust 
Win/Posix API functions? should we only trust wrappers that take D arrays 
rather than pointers? can we, for instance, create a @trusted wrapper 
around curl?)
* Efficiency / safety tradeoff guidelines (should Phobos provide a 
slightly faster implementations of things that aren't @safe? In those 
cases, should it provide both @safe and fast alternatives?)
* @safe / @trusted IO as a goal

As is, there are a smattering of things in Phobos that aren't @safe but 
seem like they could or should be, with no explanation and no safe 
alternatives. I think almost all IO is @system. This makes it hard and 
sometimes confusing to try to write @safe code.
