Discussion Thread: DIP 1042--ProtoObject--Community Review Round 1

[Mike Parker]

## Discussion Thread

This is the discussion thread for the first round of Community 
Review of DIP 1042, "ProtoObject":

https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/2e6d428f42b879c0220ae6adb675164e3ce3803c/DIPs/DIP1042.md

The review period will **end at 11:59 PM ET on January 24**, or 
when I make a post declaring it complete. Discussion in this 
thread may continue beyond that point.

Here in the discussion thread, you are free to discuss anything 
and everything related to the DIP. Express your support or 
opposition, debate alternatives, argue the merits, etc.

However, if you have any specific feedback on how to improve the 
proposal itself, then please post it in the Feedback Thread. The 
Feedback Thread will be the source for the review summary that I 
will write at the end of this review round. I will post a link to
that thread immediately following this post. Just be sure to read 
and understand the Reviewer Guidelines before posting there:

And my blog post on the difference between the Discussion and 
Feedback threads:

Please stay on topic here. I will delete posts that are 
completely off-topic.
