You write well and the site is nicely structured :) Nice initiative.

As for the Tango vs Phobos article; The interoperation issue may not be as
dire as you suggest. With the latest release we provided the
PhobosCompatibility version identifier that should make it possible to use
Phobos and Tango API at the same time. The caveat is that Phobos itself
needs to be modified somewhat. I believe Gregor has made an effort to that
effect, aptly named tangobos, but I have a feeling that noone really feels
like mantaining/supporting such a library, and thus it may mostly be an
aide for those wanting to port their applications to Tango in a slow and
easy manner. _If_ someone wants to mantain/support the full Phobos API on
top of Tango, it should be eminently doable without too much effort,
though.
