Lars isn't listed as an author for the time code in Tango. But anyway, I can't imagine that he would mind.

People have mentioned that there are 5 authors.  Does anyone know who the 5th author is?  He/she is not listed as an author in the source.

Having written most of the API for tango.time, I sorta like it :)  I really like the API that SHOO came up with based on it.  If there's any way to get SHOO's code into Phobos, I want to pursue that first.  If this fails, we can go with boost.

Wut?

Person A wrote some code and had a look at code from person B.
Now person C says that A need to get permission from B so that C can use
the code from A.
The reason is because the license of the code written by B isn't quite
compatible with the license recently chosen by C.

And now you are calling B an idiot/douche for that reason?
