D and Phobos 2.000 and 2.098 (as their version are tightly 
coupled) went though so many versions and deprecations it's 
getting confusing to keep track what works and what used to work. 
I sometimes have to search changelogs to keep code compatible 
between releases across operating systems. A compiled list of 
features with their version ranges would be pretty big.

I think it'd be safe to do D3 as well, because this also includes 
language changes throughout the decade (I think D2 was from 
2008!).

Do take this as a grain of salt, I transitioned from .NET to D in 
around 2016 so maybe I am a little used to having my library 
(e.g., .NET 4.5.2) and my language (e.g., C# 7) separated.

But curious what std.v2 will bring. Will keep an eye open!
