The bikeshed is now translucent... However, the community still 
lacks focus/direction. Pick a destination, establish To-dos and 
Milestones, empower the community to make it happen, then 
supervise to ensure everyone stays on task.

State the priority or at a least list of priorities. Everything 
under the sun cannot be THE priority.

e.g.
    1. Improve Module System
       -- To-dos
       -- Milestones

    2. Improve Memory Management
       2.1 Garbage Collector
           -- To-dos
           -- Milestones

       2.2 Manual Memory Management
           -- To-dos
           -- Milestones

    3. Tools
       3.1 Adapt dfmt
           -- To-dos
           -- Milestones

       3.1 Adapt dfix
           -- To-dos
           -- Milestones

After stating the priority, identify the most capable resources 
to head each initiative, empower them with a bit of autonomy and 
encourage the larger community to organize in support of these 
initiatives.

Finally, supervise!!!
