I've marked the DIP as Postponed:
https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/bdeb9ce254f2ff695afeb20a072633148d177166/DIPs/other/DIP1022.md
And so that there are no misunderstandings for anyone following
the thread, Walter doesn't need permission to Postpone the DIP.
We could have completed the Final Review, sent it to him and
Atila, and they could have said, "Let's wait". But they also
could have rejected it outright. Not saying they would have, but
they could have. The whole point of postponing it now is that we
freeze the process in its tracks and avoid sending it for a final
verdict for now. It's best to have the DIP author's consent,
though.
Postponed DIPs may be revived at any time. Given that some time
will have elapsed, it's a good idea to pick up the interrupted
review again to make sure it's on par with any language changes
that came in the interim. In this case, since we're in the Final
Review, we would only repeat that if there were no or minimal
revisions to the DIP. Otherwise, we'd either go back to the
Community Review round or, if a complete rewrite were necessary,
possibly terminate the DIP and go back to the Draft Review with a
new one.
