I agree, the current situation is VERY bad for D as a language.

I see only one solution at the moment that would (IMO) be fair for everyone:

*****

1) Tango has to loose the claim to be a replacement for Phobos, instead 
it *has* to be an enhancement on top of Phobos (and *perhaps* merge with 
Phobos later, but this is a different discussion).

2) At the same time Walter should open Phobos to everyone (that includes 
the Tango team).

*****

... ideally this should be put in action with the first stable release 
of D2. I think we will never get a better chance to correct this error 
of the past as plain and simple like that.

LLAP,
