Expressing an opinion on your knowledge of a subject is not "ad 
hominem" either. A few posts ago, Manu wrote "I don't think you 
have made a game" = "I don't think you have the same amound of 
knowledge of the game industry". That is not ad hominem.

You think that Andrei telling you to "do something" is "ad 
hominem". Again, it's not. He is just stating that sometimes 
talking is not enough. If you really care about knowing how many 
people are interested in getting a runtime D, open a voting pool 
somewhere on the internet, link it in a proper thread in the 
announce section, and try to see what results you get, try to 
interpret them and so on.
If you believe the people here can achieve something great, you 
should try to help coordinating the community. It's true that we 
lack organization basics. Are you knowledgeable about the 
subject? Are you interested in helping the community? If your 
answer is "yes" to bot questions, than you should really do 
something, and I talking about non-coding stuff. Being a top 
contributor is not a requirement for helping in a tangible way.

It's a community effort. AA and WB are not leaders in the strict 
sense. As I already told you, if you want to contribute by 
helping coordinating efforts, I think all of us would be really 
happy about that.
