Anyone is free to use Tango in their own apps, just like they're free to use any 3rd party library. The problem is that Andrei doesn't want anything to be "official" unless it only depends on official stuff (I don't know how Walter feels about that). So, if Orbit is to be D's official package manager (and presumably be in the D-Programming-Language group on github), it can't depend on any libraries other than D's standard library and its own internal libraries.
Phobos depends on two external libraries, curl and libz. Probably only half of what's included in the DMD distribution is written in D.
