I asked Sönke about this back when dub was called VPM (so a lot 
of the answer is out of date now).  His reply:

It'd be nice if he could update with what he thinks is left 
before it'd be ready to be the official package manager.  I've 
hit a bug here or there in my own usage of dub but overall I find 
it to be very good (and Sönke usually fixes things I've hit in 
less than a day).  There is a potential package format switch to 
Simple Declarative Language that should probably come before dub 
is official and some general final polishing but overall it feels 
really close to being ready to me.
