This project is very interesting to me I believe it may be 
extremely valuable to D as a whole! I have seen it a few months 
ago, but back then I didn't have much time to check it out.

What is the current status?
Is it self-hosting? E.g. can you build dmd only with it?
What are your goals (in addition to minimal external 
dependencies)?
How much of Phobos and druntime do you want reimplement or offer 
alternative features to?

Threading, ranges, containers and algorithms, IO, std.math, etc.?
