Reading the "Rust Dataframe: Update 1" post on HN, I decided to check if D has something similar like pandas and stumbled upon "D Dataframes" https://github.com/kaleidicpublic/d_dataframes.

The README says "very early stage" but the last update was 3 years ago. It's not like D doesn't have abandoned packages, plenty of them. I am just curious what happened?

https://github.com/Kriyszig/magpie

but looks like it's inactive now.

It began as a GSOC project. I believe the creator is back to school. Hopefully he has the chance to work on it further.
