I try very hard not to touch that subject because people are so 
passionate about the whole Phobos/Tango topic.  True, Tango is a great 
library, and (at least in my opinion) is better than Phobos.  But it's 
still Walter's language, and he can do whatever he wants.

I think that one of the subjects for discussion at this years D 
Conference is that very topic.  I might have heard wrong, but that's the 
impression I was under.
