He seemed to be interested in rewriting it (he thought a rewrite would've been a good idea even if he hadn't lost the original source code). As far as I know, he hasn't worked any more on it though. See http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?DDotNet for more info about D.NET.

If you email me the compiler I can decompile it with Reflector
(http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/). I might need to get the old
beta 2.0 framework again though. Unfortunately it's completely
incompatible with the current 2.0 framework. I'd have to uninstall my
framework and reinstall the old one, just to decompile it.
No big deal I guess. please send it to ctlajoie at gmail if you find
it.

I just now realized how great Delphi's VCL framework was at the time. I was mixing Delphi and C++ with their C++ Builder in a single project, and it worked just great. I guess it was the .NET of its time. Where did they go wrong?

What's the license of the D docs on digitalmars.com ?

IIRC, they had their first major change of leadership at the time. Which also resulted in certain dithering, and identity crisis. (Inprise.)

Makes no difference.

??? Cause we'd ask Walter's permission anyhow. ;-)
