Before doing anything I'd suggest trying to reach main
DMD/Phobos developers and ask them what kind of tools they
feel lacking and what they would personally use. Such solution
is only useful if it solves real problems of developers and
thus is not viewed as additional maintenance burden. As Andrei
has mentioned, there was one attempt of using Trello for
similar purposed some time ago and it didn't catch up.
Isn't that what this forum post is for? To see what the core
DMD/Phobos developers would like. Is there another place to
post this sort of question?
Maybe it is worth duplicating to dmd-internals mail list and with
CC to those who actively contribute to DMD. To be honest I don't
even know who is currently in active D development team. In this
thread I see Andrei and Vladimir but neither seem very
enthusiastic.
Do you have some more details on what this priority
communication would look like. I can document it in my list of
desirable features.
It is better to ask Martin - I don't take part in any of those
and have roughly as much understanding of the process as you do :)
But one thing that has occured to me is that we don't really need
any complicated tool - just creating dedicated
D-Programming-Language/bigpicture repo with issues enabled
(editable only by core devs) and moving stuff from
http://wiki.dlang.org/Agenda there in form of milestones and
issues with link aggregation would be enough.
But, again, my opinion has zero value here.
