Wait, now I don't get it. If you meant that Walter was not to have 
control of it, and in fact it(the lib) wouldn't even be bundled or 
synchronous with DMD, then wouldn't that make it an alternative lib, 
like Ares, which is something that can be made now?

(When I said I would like to some more community development in Phobos, 
I really meant *Phobos*, the stdlib that is official, comes with D/DMD, 
is Walter approved,etc.)
