Walter and Atila have informed me that they have approved DIP 1035, "@system Variables", on the grounds that it identifies a loophole in the @safe
checks and provides a reasonable solution. Walter said it's a good DIP.

Congratulations to Dennis Korpel and Paul Backus.
I've marked DIP 1037, "Add Unary Operator ...", as "Abandoned". As an abandoned DIP, it has been removed from the review queue and is now free for anyone to champion it who is so inclined. The original author is also free to come back to it at any time.

If you would like to take on DIP 1037, or any abandoned DIP, please contact social@dlang.org and we'll discuss the necessary steps.
