The bigger issue is the documentation. D has been very stagnant in

Tango had it all. The 3rd party document generator was excellent. Its
parser actually followed the written language spec more closely than
DMD. Unfortunately Tango and 3rd party utilities written by Tango
enthusiastics cannot be used anymore because of license & political
issues.
At the risk of "feeding the troll," I don't think there's any
political/licensing issues preventing using dil to generate the docs
except that dil doesn't support d2 (or does it?).
I really like the tango doc style, much better than phobos'.
