This is not a one man job which someone can make a neat preview 
of. It's a decision that has to be made from the maintainers so 
that several people can start working with such a big task. Also 
documenting what needs to be done. This ties into the original 
post with the blog post, that the D project has problems with 
rallying people towards a common goal (which today is very vague).

People starting to add and change things randomly and then hoping 
that it will be accepted and be merged isn't really a good way to 
run a project.
