Sticking to 2.068 will help for some time but is not a long-term 
solution. Particularly when considering some of the bigger D 
issues left to resolve, we'll likely have to deal with some 
incompatibilities/deprecations.
Also consider that we might use the stable phobos parts.

I made a Trello card, let's discuss the details when we're 
actually working on this.
