I don't think I did, at least this post didn't give me any other view on
what you are saying. My problem is probably that you seem to imply that
Phobos is better suited for what you call low-level functionality, whereas
I think Tango is _at least_ equally well suited, and unlike Phobos, very
well integrated with the higher level aspects of Tango (or the other way
round). Thus I am of the opinion that if you use the higher level
functionality of Tango, then you generally should also use the lower level
functionality of Tango. There is no code in Tango that would benefit from
being built on top of Phobos (as Kris said elsewhere in the thread),
although there may be code there that may serve as a basis or inspiration
for implementations in Tango. Indeed, there are modules present in both.
These are generally fairly standalone modules though.
