The opened druntime PRs do not necessarily fix any issues or add new features, but rather contain minor refactorings of small, unreported, bug fixes. So I would say that there is no relationship betweem the number of bugs of a component and the number of PRs that are opened. The fundamental reason why dmd has more opened bugs is because it is the oldest codebase among the 3. Also, some bugs are reported as belonging to dmd when they're actually druntime bugs, because it is difficult to properly identify the component if you are not a contributor. I have changed the component part of many dmd bugs to druntime over time.

With LDC, -link-defaultlib-shared links the binary against shared druntime/Phobos. It's the default setting when creating a shared library with -shared; use it explicitly when creating an executable. This way, the executable and all .so libs share the same druntime/Phobos, incl. a single GC, default std.parallelism thread pool etc.
Re: A Pull Request Manager's Perspective
We should make a list of the things we need to do, in order of importance. Not just for solving problems, but for raising them,and who give good advice.They are rewarded according to their importance and excellence. D needs a list, just like buglist,'todolist'. Everyone takes a task from the todolist, completes it, and receives reward.

Re: PixelPerfectEngine v0.10.0-beta.1 release + looking for a team

I would like to have a few testers at least. I cannot provide any financial compensation, however I do plan to take game development in D to the next level (most likely this very same engine), so I might count you into my project. I also looking for other kind of creatives, mainly pixel artists, but I guess this is not the place for that. Does it have a website/docs? Are there any demo games?
Re: BeerConf May 2021
I'm not sure if it's possible, but given some of the recent and ongoing discussions, someone doing a presentation on type theory and Howard-Curry correspondence might go a long way towards people using the same words/concepts in discussions.
