I was thinking about something similar: Basic-D, a subset of D

docs and tutorials.
Maybe these type of subset languages could be integrated in the
D frontpage.
I think it is too early for that as my project is not yet
started, and it may not have any traction. I believe that if I
can create solid documentation then it might make a difference
but we will see.
Fortunately or not - I have limited time - so I won't be making
changes to D other than very simple patches to switch off some
things. I simply cannot afford to spend time on maintaining a
different code base. My main focus will be to create
documentation.
I can probably do one thing - guarantee that the new language is
a proper subset of D and that any code in laser-D is guaranteed
to build with dmd, ldc, gdc.
