I'd support inclusion into the official Dlang package but it has 
to be ready for distribution. I'm a big fan of it but it doesn't 
seem 100% stable yet.

For experimental libs i'd rather they were kept out of phobos and 
placed within the dub registry. We can load and use them at 
leisure from there without expecting any sort of support from the 
language maintainers. If included in phobos i can almost 
guarantee that even though they will be marked experimental devs 
will moan when they change because they will have an official 
stamp.

Dub should be more embraced by the official language maintainers 
especially moving the Deimos repo's into there. I myself have had 
to duplicate and package a deimos repo and add it just to move on 
with a project.
