That's not what I'm doing. The exact phrase was "it's reached the 
point that the lack of manpower allows something like this to 
happen". We recently had discussions about Visual D and GtkD 
being dead. These are major projects and nobody's picked them up. 
Contributors have left and nobody's taken their place. Adam left 
to work on his fork. The list of problems could go on but I don't 
have time for that discussion. And now a release is nearly four 
months late.

I can't imagine anyone comparing the current situation to where 
things were six or eight years ago and not be deeply concerned.

I'm not leaving D. I've moved projects to other languages if 
others are involved. I cannot look at the current state of 
affairs and tell someone else they should use D.
