No problem, renoX, but there's at least two strawmen in your post. Maybe 
three:

1) "big projects look ugly" -- unsustained nonsense :)

2) "convention used by Walter" -- phobos is a mix of all kinds of 
non-cohesive design and implementation. So much for convention :)

3) "amatuerish" because of a minor variation in style?  Digging for 
mountainous molehills, my friend :)

Further, there a vague implication that Tango is somehow non-coherent, and 
that we 'invented' our own style of using camelCase for global variables and 
module names. LOL!
Well, we didn't invent anything new. Those idioms have been used very 
successfully by millions of programmers for decades.

This is great! No offence taken, RenoX, and none intended toward you ... but 
you might as well say that "D sucks goat turds" because it changes how C 
programmers view the world. Yeah, I know people don't like change, but 
seriously.

If you truly feel the use of CamelCase in global vars is just too 
distressing, please, see a doctor. Such things are /really/ not worth 
getting upset about, or bitching and moaning about. To quote yourself: 
"sorry for the harsh words, but that's my view"
