And it's not just Weka. I've had a chance to talk in private to
some other developers. Quite a lot have serious, fundamental
issues with the language. You will notice none of them speaks
up on this thread.
They don't see the point.
No technical project is born great. If you want a technical
project to be great, the people working on it have to focus on
its *flaws*. The D's community just doesn't do that.
To sum it up: fatal flaws + no path to fixing + no push from
the community = inevitable eventual death.
The D Foundation has an Open Collective page
(https://opencollective.com/dlang) with a $12,000 annual
"Corporate Bronze" option that includes 3 priority bug fixes per
month. Is that not a worthwhile investment for Weka or other
organizations invested in D to help address some of the problems
you're encountering? If not, is there an option that would be?
