D1 isn't supposed to change that much and development of the language 
only happens in the latest version (2). The newcomers along with any 
user who considers them selves experienced but not quite sure on a 
particular thing, should ask those questions in D.learn. Also 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/d is a great place but there 
is no point in Dx groups.
