I'm not sure I'd call myself part of the core D team (although I have 
another proposal that is currently going through the DIP process that 
would certainly qualify me for the title!).

However in saying that, memory safety is on the foundation's radar as 
needing solving.

I'm just the weirdo that is having a go at trying to solve temporal 
memory safety (an unsolved problem!).
