I saw this, but I do think their situation is somewhat different, 
at least based on my Clojure usage around maybe 2011-2013.

Their development model seemed to be more like SQLite, where 
they'll call you if they want you to contribute, but they don't 
really ever call because they want to do it themselves. The D 
development model is AFAICT to get as many contributions from as 
many people as possible.
