Hi Ketmar,

1)I quote me: "How much $ funding so I consider it?"
  here in D form- http://tinyurl.com/ks7z9jy

2) http://www.meetup.com/D-Lang-Sillicon-Valley
This is us hosting and operating it, I hope people join 30 
members so far for the first meet up in Jan.

3) I pay salaries for 6 full time D users, who use D.

So I hope you do care about D, and hence we have to work together.
I have a suggestion that one can have lots of features w/ stable 
core, both.

Adding features will not work, that is a fact that some don't see.
Moving them is painful, no question about that.
Current situation is we are stuck, ex:
" Anyone want to review these and see what we should add to
  Phobos?" from

Cheers,
Vic
