Now that we've got a lot of contributors to Phobos and many projects in
the works, I decided to start a thread to help us make a rough plan for
Phobos's short-to-medium term development. There are three goals here:
1. Determine what's next in the review queue after std.csv (voting on
std.csv ends tonight, so **please vote**).
Isn't it better to add a list on the wiki so we don't have to do this
all over yet again.
2. Come up with a wish list of high-priority modules that Phobos is
missing that would make D a substantially more attractive language than
it is now.
I would really like to see high level networking support, something like
the CURL wrapper.
* Serialization. (Jacob Carolberg's Orange library might be a good
candidate. IIRC he said it's close to ready for review.)
This is ready for (pre-)review and have been that for quite a while now.
* Better support for creating processes/new std.process. (Lars
Kyllingstad wrote a replacement candidate for Posix and Steve
Schveighoffer ported it to Windows, but issues with the DMC runtime
prevent it from working on Windows.)
Wasn't there a fix for the DMC runtime? In that case, why isn't it
already applied?
