Based on recent discussions on the NG a few features were
deprecated/removed from D, such as typedef and C style struct initializers.
IMO this cleanup and polish is important and all successful languages do
such cleanup for major releases (Python and Ruby come to mind). I'm glad
to see that D follows in those footsteps instead of accumulating craft
like C++ does.
As part of this trend of cleaning up D before the release of D2, what
other features/craft should be removed/deprecated?
I suggest reverse_foreach and c style function pointers
please add your candidates for removal.
Make version() statements case insensitive, although I guess that would
be addition and not removal. Either that, or add the common cases for
all reserved version keywords (or at least some consistency, linux and
FreeBSD).
