On this point, when's the last time someone tried pinging him
via email? Is the whois for the domain not current?

His email is supposedly brad at dsource.org. I know people
have had difficulty contacting him in the past but I've never
tried myself.
And just to clarify, I'm not the same Brad Anderson that runs
DSource (which has caused some confusion in the past). I'm
pretty sure neither of us talk in the third person.
He, the dsource guy, is Brad AndersEn from Atlanta, GA,
according
to what little info is available. His whois email is at some
company that seems to have gone away or changed name or ...
dsource seems to be on a VPS at slicehost and, so it seems, just
one in some more sites on that virtual host.
It seems we shouldn't hold our breath to hear from Mr. Andersen,
unless someone here knows him personally and is in contact with
him.
But then, most people looking for D arrive here at dlang anyway.
I think, we should simply put some kind of marker here concering
dsource being comatose.

By reading this thread I just learn that dsource.org is "dead".
And by going deeper in the wiki I found a page that replace
dsource.org as an entry point to D related projects :
http://wiki.dlang.org/Libraries_and_Frameworks
I think this page should be more visible on dlang to show how
much the community is large to the newcomers.
Maybe a Dquick will have a little place near others GUI Libraries
when it will be more than a protytpe. I can see that all
multi-platforms ones are wrappers and others only support
Windows. I am a Windows user, but I don't understand why others
platforms are forgotten.
