Yes, the Sinbad project at DSource was supposed to be an implementation of
OGRE in D. Even if OGRE is fairly clean, it use quite a bit of MI which
isn't easily solvable in D without changing how things should work. Also,
OGRE is heavily relying upon plugins, which currently are somewhat
difficult to do in D, although DDL is getting there. It is also using a bit
of STL, so all in all I suspect it is a typical C++ library that is
typically difficult to convert to D without huge manual efforts.
