[Vinod K Chandran via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Hi all,
I read in an old thread that authors of D wants to eliminate 
@property. I just roughly read the big thread bu couldn't find a 
conclusion. After all that thread is a 48 page longer jumbo 
thread. So out of curiosity, i am asking this. What is the 
current state of @property ? Is it deprecated ?
