You could have those 10000 engineers at your disposal but they 
wouldn't even know what to do. They would just sit idling or play 
computer games their entire days. In order make people move you 
need to have a clear vision, write architecture documents, write 
work packages and so forth which you or no one in the D 
management does.

Right now people in the D project don't even know what to do or 
implement. Should D have co-routines or should async/await be 
implemented? Then we need a document that explains to everybody 
what needs to be implemented so people can go pick a certain work 
package they want to implement.

The D project consist mostly of coders who just start right away, 
which was obvious with your importC which came out of nowhere. 
Now, I don't demand that everybody should be full seasoned 
managers but the D project certainly lacks these types of people. 
Also people who perhaps want to step away from coding and write 
architecture/design documents would help.
