Now what happens to the "What's left for 1.0" discussions and stuff?

Now that 1.0* is here, what's are we going to do with all these attempts 
to round up what's needed for 1.0, much of which is still pending?

* Walter's actually called it 1.00, except in the compiler itself, which 
reports its version as 1.0.  On the basis that this particular 
versioning system was two integers separated by a dot rather than a 
decimal number, is 1.00 just 1.0 with half of it expressed in octal?  :-)

1. Pending Peeves is still, according to itself, a list of "issues that 
people feel need to address, hopefully in time for D 1.0".

2. Then there was d1.0blocker, only 4 out of 15 nominees fixed and 0 out 
of 17 nominations answered.

3. In the same area is the Bugzilla tracker to "Get the documentation 
cleaned up for 1.0", which seemed to be a little more successful, with 
11 issues fixed out of 17.

I suppose part of the trouble is that, back in those days, quite a few 
of us expected 1.0 to be a milestone from a practical and not just 
symbolic POV.  And now we have a new question of which major version 
issues should be nominated to block now and what we should get the 
documentation cleaned up for now.

Any ideas?

Stewart.
