The review of std.net.curl is done and the voting has started.  I'm loving this steady pipeline of reviews and additions to Phobos. According to http://prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?ReviewQueue, there's nothing ready for review now, though.

Jacob Carlborg, are you ready to have std.serialize reviewed for inclusion in Phobos in a week?  Serialization is a pretty high priority and should be reviewed ASAP if it's ready.  Otherwise, does anyone else have something to fill in the bubble in the queue?  I'd like to start a new review after the std.net.curl vote is done.

I hate to be the one doing this, but can I nitpick on the name? std.serialization sounds much better than std.serialize for a module name.

In any case, +1 for having Orange up for review next! Would definitely like to see it in Phobos ASAP.

I guess so. I have a few things I would like to fix first, it currently doesn't build on latest DMD because of the deprecated typedef.

I recently started abbreviating Serialization as s11n (Es-Eleven-En) in the same vain as i18n for Internationalization and l10n for Localization. Its not my invention, its in use in C/C++ libs and probably other languages too. I think std.s11n; world be an acceptable module name.

I've never heard that abbreviation.

Me neither. I'd just go for serialize, because it's completely recognizable and shorter than serialization.

I got fed up of typing it "the long way" and started using the same abbreviation technique as for i18n (ie firstLetter-#omittedLetters-lastLetter) googled the result and found out I was not the first to have the same idea. I've no more etymological references than that but I never claimed it was common or well known ^^
