Some. Enough to know that although there wouldn't be legal issues, I
don't think we should take things just because we can. It's
unnecessarily provocational.<br>

Now, if std.gregorian is technically better rather than just different,
then I have no objections going that direction anyway.
My 2 cents,

Subject: [phobos] std.gregorian
Although I do not believe that SHOO's work on the date/time is legally
infringing on Tango's time code, I feel there's been enough bad feeling about
this and that we should not include Tango's time api design in Phobos.
I apologize to SHOO for this. I know this is unfair to him.
Andrei has given a start to std.gregorian, perhaps SHOO's implementation work
can be transferred to this to help complete it?
