Let's not get hung up on past conversations and any motivations.  It's not
productive anyway.  Let's just actively show how much value having it can add
and improve things by using it effectively.

So, don't let the lack of currently entered bugs deter you (or anyone) from
starting to create new ones.  There's a chicken vs the egg issue to get past as
soon as we can (it's not used much so why bother, but if it was used then it'd
be obvious to use it).

Some bugs worth filing, for anyone who has the desire to help out:

1) dstress bugs that are failing
2) missing or inaccurate docs in the language or phobos web pages
3) old bugs from this newsgroup that seem to have gotten lost in the shuffle.

Later,
Brad
