Problem is that this is most simple PR to simply add message-passing support for fibers. Adding some advanced schedulers with worker thread pool can be expected to be done on top but.. This small PR has been rotting there for ages with pretty much zero attention but from few interested persons.
Yep. It's been gathering dust but for the occasional request to rebase the code. A better scheduler can be added, but I think that should follow this pull request's addition to Phobos. I don't want to block the infrastructure from acceptance because people have issues with a complicated scheduler that happened to be bundled with it. Though as it is, one of the pull requests I created for Druntime for a Facebook request has sat for months, presumably because of a request regarding a documentation formatting change that I overlooked. And I know I'm not alone. Robert's struggle with getting std.logger accepted is the stuff told to children around the campfire so they don't venture out into the dark.
