I have an HTTP client lib, I'm pretty sure Vladimir does too, and 
I think vibe wrote one for their framework. I'm sure we're not 
the only ones. I also have an XML lib, and again, I'm pretty sure 
Vladimir does too...

I'm not really interested in going in Phobos, my dev pace is 
different than their's (when I use it on real world stuff, I do 
fast development, and when not, I'm busy with other stuff and it 
sits...) and my style is different too.

BUT, if someone wanted to partner and do the boring Phobos crap 
I'm not doing myself, I'd help with everything else.


But nevertheless, the D community has the code already or these 
replacements - it is just a question of Phobos joining forces 
with the existing efforts.
