In the last several years the development of D/Phobos didn't keep 
a constant speed (and this is normal), I have seen sprints, 
slowdowns, etc.

In the latest months I'm seeing a reduction of activity both on 
the language side, on the fixing and merging of important Phobos 
patches, and even regarding the number of interesting discussions 
in the main D newsgroup.

Some of this "hibernation" could be caused by the latest 
"revolution" threads by Andrei. But probably there are also other 
causes.

Or perhaps I'm just mis-measuring the kind of D activity, and 
everything is going on as well as usual :-)
