my own build tool can build alot more things than just D sources. for
example, build C library with D project. and many more. it is based on
'jam', but i made alot of changes to it. dub will never be able to do
the same, at least until it has no scripting language. and if it will
get scripting language... well, i don't like to rewrite all my jamfiles
for dub. ;-)

my jam can work as 'configure', it has module to use D library
repository (yes, i have to update that manually and there is no
versioning for now, but i just don't need that, it's not hard to add)
with dependencies (i.e. doing 'dlang.require derelict.sdl2' will
automatically add derelict.util and -ldl to link flags, and so on.

please note that i'm not trying to tell that dub is bad or something.
dub is great, it just don't fit my needs (and probably never will,
'cause it's architecture is different from what i used to).

yes, i understand that phobos has alot of code and it's hard to
maintain it. i'm just throwing in my $0.02, but i'm in no way forcing
someone to do something just because it is useful for me and i don't
want to do it myself. ;-)
