I'm not talking about "open" as in FOSS reference implementation.
Rather, If I want to add a feature to the language, what are my
chances of ever succeeding?
In case of C++, if a feature is really useful and gains traction
among the users, there is the chance that national bodies will
move and (over the course of a decade) it'll make it into the
standard.
In case of Swift - forget about it.
In case of D, I really don't know how much
corporate/political/personal influence is involved. There is
always some, to some degree, but how much - is the question.
Why do people feel it is risky to develop a large project in D
but not in C++?
Is there a roadmap or any kind of long-term plan?
