So the better direction according to some is to stagnate language design for D2 so Walter Bright can reinvent the linker? So that years later when asked why D didn't do more for concurrency when it was needed, you'd have to reply: "well there wasn't any time to deal with such trivial issues, the language designer had to work on the toolchain."What's up with all the negativity lately? Impatience?Some people think D2 tries too much, and neglects the really important things at the same time. For example, D2 tries to solve the concurrency issue (which is a hot topic which makes D look good at sites like stackoverflow), while still relying on a 20 years old linker written in assembler.You are of course completely correct in this, but the question is, can you do a new linker? I can't. There must be someone out there who can - please, please.
