DIP 1010--Static foreach--Accepted

[Mike Parker via Digitalmars-d-announce]

Congratulations to Timon Gehr. Not only was his "Static foreach" 
DIP accepted, it picked up a good deal of praise from Walter & 
Andrei. I've added my summary to the Review section of the DIP, 
but I'll quote it here in full:

"This DIP was accepted by the language authors. Both Proposal 1 
and Proposal 2 were accepted. Evaluation of the suggested future 
improvements has been put off until some future date when 
sufficient experience with the implementation has been 
accumulated.

Regarding Proposal 1, they find it integrates well with the rest 
of the language and falls within the spirit of D. They see it 
more as the removal of a limitation than the addition of a 
feature, and like that it reuses the syntax and semantics of 
existing language entities (`alias` and `enum`). They see 
Proposal 2 as the core of the DIP, finding that it is 
well-motivated and liking that it reuses elements of Proposal 1.

On the whole, they believe that this DIP obeys the rule of least 
astonishment in that most of the examples work as expected and 
are easy to understand by lowering to the pre-DIP language. They 
also say that the examples are a good sanity check to ensure that 
the feature fulfills its envisioned applications, and that the 
DIP is exceptionally well written. This should be read as a note 
to future DIP authors that they will not be wrong to use this DIP 
as a model."
