D2 is really that stable as it is claimed to be?

[Zhouxuan]

 From what I see, as a new user of D, D's current feature set is 
so exciting and rich enough that I'm willing to give it a try. 
However, I feel frustrated because some simple usage about some 
feature I excerice failed, take AA for example, it's a basic 
feature as described in TDPL, but I even can't use it to store an 
array indexed by a string 
(http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=10970),no matter 
whatever you explaned, it's the truth that I feel AA is not 
usable and I give up AA (or maybe whole D given that AA is 
advertised to be a very basic feature).It's really a big problem 
and you guys should focus more on it if D wanna gain more 
popularity IMHO.
On the other hand, D's feature is attractive, no matter how much 
buggy is it, the expectation that it'll be solved once D gain 
more popularity and more and more programmers are innvolved in D 
may keep me learn and practise D as a hobby, but where's the 
expectation comes from? IMHO, D need a more organized team, meet 
once a week or two on irc, report your effort and finally post it 
to public (maybe filtered) like Rust meeting on its wiki page. So 
that every new user is convinced that D's in a virtuous circle 
and every issue they care about is being worked on, as well as a 
future plan (if not being worked ATM) on those issues most 
mentioned in NG/IRC etc like GC.
FYI, as a new user both to D and Rust, Rust is more convinced to 
me in every aspect except for its current unstable status.Its 
mainpage, wiki page and github repo are far more informative and 
active than D's counter-part, why don't we learn from Rust?

Sincerely hope/wish D to be more successful!
