Why not promoting team work?

[nbro via Digitalmars-d]

Hi!

I've been following D for at least one year. I like it and I 
think it's a very good programming language, even though I do not 
agree with everything it's being done.

One thing that has saddened me is seeing a lot of D's users 
trying to implement their own library or maybe trying to 
implement multiple libraries at the same time. Most of the 
results are very poor because libraries are not

1. completed
2. maintained
3. well-written

I've seen comments like "I'm no more maintaining this library 
because I'm not able to proceed since I do not have the skills". 
This of course doesn't bring any credibility to the language, to 
the community, etc. So we see some people trying bring the 
caravan forward, but I many of these people are not qualified 
enough clearly, since they do not even have the vision and the 
knowledge that starting a project like creating a serious GUI or 
modern IDE is not an easy task, and definitely it won't be a 
person alone that will create one a decent amount of years that 
will compete with the most performant ones.

My idea (which is mostly directed to the big names behind D) is 
that team work should somehow be promoted.

How could you do such a thing?

One possibility could be to announce interesting and useful 
projects in D and somehow ask for people interesting in working 
in such projects. These people should clearly be qualified for 
the job, but this isn't an easy task to verified. The projects 
could eventually or not be backed up by the announcer of the 
project.

These could be a few starting ideas and options.
