I'd be in favor of finally deprecating all sub-standard phobos

more encouraging than to wait for something better to come along.
Of course discussing which modules should be obsoleted is a
tricky question.
std.signals
std.xml
std.outbuffer
std.socket
std.json // maybe ;)
I do not at all agree that a big language change is needed.
We just changed the lookup rules with
http://dlang.org/changelog/2.071.0.html and managed to make this
a transition instead of a break.
Also without a proposed feature list this discussion is somewhat
lame.
