For somebody whose name I haven't seen here before, I have to say, I
like the way you write D code.
I'd like to take over, but there are younger and more talented -- and
more Linux savvy guys here, to do it better.

FOR EVERYBODY ELSE:
I bet there are thousands of guys reading this NG, who haven't made any
noise or who haven't submitted code. I bet quite a few of you don't want
to do it "because the code should be polished, look like written by some
long time D expert", well commented, or otherwise "better than your
own normal code".
I want you guys to know, that the D community is glad to receive even
half-written stuff, anytime you feel (like S did) that you don't have
the time to "finish" it.
(Be it a single class, a single method, half a module, or just a
skeleton of a concept. Or just maybe a part of any of those.)

Besides, submitting code, or even fragments of code, is the way to get a
permanent plaque in the Hall of Contributors. Compare that to those who
have contributed to the syntax, the morale, the direction of development
-- none of them will ever get mentioned anywhere, even after half a decade.
