Just out of curiosity... what's the motivation for this fork? And I seriously don't mean that as an attack or insult, just wondering. Especially given that the list of changes appears to be pretty small.
Is there some specific "thing" about D that this project means to address? Or is there some grand vision or ideological basis for the new language?
- brabel 3y agoIt seems people's suggestions were not being heard and so they decided to fork. The author of the fork seems to be quite happy to merge his own rejected contributions to start off: https://github.com/orgs/opendlang/discussions/1 https://github.com/orgs/opendlang/discussions/1 > Then, wanna get the library distribution done too, I have a list of old, rejected or stagnated PRs from upstream I wanna get right in and start testing, and I wanna write a new driver program to simplify tasks for the users - an updater driver, etc. Doesn't seem so "open" when someone just goes on to merge his own changes without any discussion about it.
- mindcrime 3y agoGotcha. Thanks!
