It's scope was definitely a little on the large side.
Also why with Devisualization I have split things up into very 
manageable small chunks. With very specific scope.

Before I started it I had a very specific game plan for it. 
Devisualization.Window is quite literally at the bottom and hence first 
to be made.

I'm now at the point that I may not have the best image implementation. 
But the abstraction is relatively pretty decent.

But small summary:
- window doesn't see many changes these days. Mostly documentation and 
fixes for updates to image definition
- image, bare minimum png export and a relatively decent png import with 
an ok mutable type
- font, rasterizes BDF fonts fine. No underline/strike through
- scenegraph, sort of the same situation for window. Although could have 
more implementations of the scenegraph interfaces.
- mesh, ehh is at the very very beginning of life, has Wavefront Object 
model loader
- util, has a bunch of sub projects
	- core, needs more work especially the linegraph (given line/curves get 
all points based upon the step)
	- opengl, huge number of opengl functions need wrapping up in D types 
for easy calling. Also more work on the wrapping of Opengl concepts like 
buffers.
	- photoshop_aco same situation as window
	- I want a basic glu implementation but its too much work
- gmaterial, GUI toolkit based upon Google Material Design. Long long 
long way off. I've only just worked out how to make half decent shadows 
for papersheets. Which was a killer on how to do it.

Reward for doing small amounts of work. It's working half decently for me.
