No garbling. I quote as little as possible per Usenet convention.

I think D is at a decent position, and I don't judge a language 
based on its libraries, so Phobos itself is inconsequential.  
When DMD shifts to D it might become an interesting starting 
point for experimentation as I think a compiler is a task for 
which the current D language is well suited.
