Just wondering what the general sentiment is.
For me it's these 3 points.
- tuple support (DIP32, maybe without pattern matching)
- working import, protection and visibility rules (DIP22, 313,
314)
- finishing non-GC memory management
In my mind there are a few categories of outstanding issues.
maybe shared although I'm not sure what the situation
with that is
Noone knows, that's the problem ;).
Second, there are cases where the language works as designed,
but
the design makes it difficult to get work done. For example,
@nogc and exceptions, or const with templates (or const
altogether). Order of conditional compilation needs to be
defined
(see deadalnix's DIP).
And finally there's the things we would really like for D to be
successful. Tuple support and memory management are examples of
those. This category is essentially infinite.
It rather appears to be small.
Keeping the horizon near, helps to focus on the outstanding
implementation issues.
