Author say's it's been a slow week, but you can watch these to
get a better feel for the pace of D.
Seriously, do you believe that just because Qt, Xcode, VS, etc
do not have such features that such features are useless or
simply not possible?
Maybe you should ask "If none of these large well funded
companies have set out to create such features, should it
really be expected of a free open source project like D?"
So, although I don't speak for the D community, I suspect that
things are the same as in any open source/free project: "Step
Up or Shut Up".
At the last DConf though, I remember it being said that what
the D language really needs is corporate backing/funding. Until
that happens, I would think it foolhardy to expect any large
scale changes in how things work here..
That may be the case. Maybe that is the first step. But until
people stop acting like little children and think seriously about
the problems, goals, and solutions then who the heck knows what
to do?
