On the other hand, if this is really fast moving and with
breaking changes, one might as well keep it in the DUB registry
so that people:
- are able to rely on a particular version and have their code
breaking only when they want.
- get faster updates instead of waiting for Phobos releases.
Is it really fast moving when you have to wait for compiler
releases? I don't think so.
I also believe there is a positive correlation between "being
popular on code.dlang.org" and "being useful and with a promising
design".
