Now that D 2.0 is fairly stable, are there any plans of writing the

DMD 2.0 would have to be feature frozen and then DMD 3.0 could be
written with the previous DMD 2.0 compiler.
What are your thoughts?
There is Denis Koroskin's ddmd:

If this page is up to date, ddmd is currently at dmd 2.040's level:

Isn't SDC also in D? (Bernard Helyer and friends)
Also, Timon Gehr spoke of his own front-end (assumed to be in D) in the past, but did not provide any link to it.
But, to answer the OP question: no, there are no plan to switch to D for the reference compiler in the near future, as far as I can tell.
