Next in the Review Queue?

IIUC, the new std.process requires a fix to dmc's C runtime on Windows, so 
until that's sorted out, the new std.process is not ready for review.

As for std.socket, https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/260 
does do a fair bit of work on it, but as I understand it, it doesn't change 
enough of the API to merit a formal review (I haven't looked over that 
particular pull request in detail though - just prior versions of it - so I'm 
not all that clear on its current state). And I'm not aware of any major 
redesigns of std.socket being in the works - though there has been some 
discussion of possibly redesigning its current API. Regardless, no major 
revisions to std.socket have been submitted as ready for the review queue.

There isn't a formal list for the review queue anywhere. It's managed entirely 
by posts in the newsgroup. It's being managed fairly informally at this point, 
since we don't always review the item that's been in the queue the longest 
(depending on the current circumstances), and unless the person who's 
submitting a module for review is active on the newsgroup and ready to be 
active in the review of their code, there's no point in reviewing their code 
anyway. And as long as that works, we're going to continue to do it that way.
