LGTM.

Perhaps you can delegate some tasks to other members of the 
community. I vaguely remember other members working on similar 
modules to std.meta.*, too (John Colvin?).

Personally I would be happy to help with the task of rewriting 
dlang.org/tuple and other documentation. Since the name of the 
page itself is problematic, I suggest we introduce a new page 
with the migrated and rewritten tuple.dd information (named what, 
though? I think it should cover both lists and packs), then 
leaving tuple.dd as a small stub that succinctly explains the 
terminology change as well as linking to the new page, 
std.typecons.Tuple/std.tuple and probably to DIP54, too.
