Hi Steven,

Yes, I have now understood that.

Is there a guidelines/best practices page somewhere that describes how
should a good library be coded for acceptance into the standard
library:  patterns and conventions, etc ? I am very new to D, but from
the mails I have read on this list so far, I have learnt that all the
devs here prefer that a library API should preferably take power of D
ranges, slices and generics. But what about other things ?

Thanks,
Tarun
