The truth is, I've been nagging about LTS branches, and I've been 
nagging directly to Mike about it, and it went nowhere.
Per "core team doesn't care", when was the last time they had any 
meaningful meeting with said third party? When did they ask 3rd 
party developers directly about what they want or what they need? 
When did core team asked about "is it okay to deprecate this"?
The buildkite link is a joke in itself. It has some random 
packages, many of which are either deprecated, either abandoned. 
It doesn't even include most of the 
https://code.dlang.org/?sort=score list.
