While growing the standard library is great, or developing a packaging system for D code is all great stuff. We really need a good central search repository. Something that gives maintenance,stability, and is search able by category. That said, their really isn't a great number of mature, ready to use libraries yet. So why not just use what we already have, and keep it updated with these candidate libraries: http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?DevelopmentWithD/Libraries
