It was about contributing to the dlang github so seems on-topic to me.
It's not clear what you're trying to avoid.
I'm trying to avoid inflation of traffic unrelated to the D language and
environment. I agree that Walter's original post is on topic but a large
part of follow-ups have definitely migrated into off-topic territory.
I posted a link to a
much-read article about scripting languages' failures, along with a D
forum link that talks about avoiding one big problem he raised, on-topic?
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/tvyxljetdhjequhud...@forum.dlang.org
I think so, though his article doesn't mention D.
I do agree that that's on topic. Leaving to each of us to decide what's
on topic should work if we all adhere.
