When is ImportC finished?

I mean this less in a technical sense but more in the big picture 
sense so that someone knows where things are going and how you're 
planning to get there. If a company has a large base of existing 
C code, how easily will they be able to compile it with a D 
compiler and then put some D functions into the codebase? 
Particularly if they don't want to add a garbage collector, and 
if they want others to be able to use their D code from C/C++.

I think it would help to talk about finishing an important 
addition to the language and showing folks how they'll be able to 
use it, as opposed to a new idea in an early stage.
