Oh thats very easy. They dont. Not really. Well there are
Wish list
https://wiki.dlang.org/Wish_list
Vision documents
https://wiki.dlang.org/Vision/2018H1

But most people ignore them and work on what they want to work 
on. They scratch their own itch so to speak and if you try to 
force them to do something else they wont work at all. If you 
could figure out a way to make people work for free and on things 
that we want that be great.

Ok try for a month to control contributors on open source project 
then lecture us on how to manage resources. I will wait here to 
laugh at your failure.
