I know nothing about OpenGL but it was (and is) huge problem for 
Java.

There is no point in implementing moderated category until it is 
not abused. If it will attract abuse, we will add moderation.

The problem is exactly that those are random package right now. 
Instead those should be cleanly visible in code.dlang.org 
interface and possibly also linked from dlang.org main page. 
Linked from distributed Phobos documentation. Everything should 
beg user to go and try it.

I avoid it too but it is my personal problem to deal with. dub is 
de-facto standard in D tool chain and I am pretty sure eventually 
will be distributed with dmd.
