In case you aren't aware of the dlang-community organization at GitHub, it's an umbrella group of contributors working to keep certain D projects alive and updated. Sebastian Wilzbach filled me in on some details for the latest Project Highlight on the blog.

It's nice to see this advertised.

One thing: "Common best policies" in the list of benefits is an awkward phrase; I'm not sure if the intention is something like "Common best practices" or "Common branch policies".

Active contributors: 'Basile'  and not 'Basil'.

- Basil UK; US, also called great basil or Saint-Joseph's-wort, is a culinary herb of the family Lamiaceae.

- Basile FR, is a first name and not the identifier of a culinar herb.

BTW i wanted to ask, you live in Korea right ? What are you doing over there ?
You don't have at all the Asian physical style. Maybe because of work or GF ?

Came here in '91 in the U.S. Army, got out in '94 and stayed to make some money for a few years, married in '99, and now I'm a permanent resident. I've been a freelance teacher/tutor of one form or another for most of that time. These days I do very little actual teaching and mostly get paid to edit research papers, help high school students with their homework (I started teaching one kid when he was 6 and he starts high school this year), and otherwise talk to people in English two or three hours a week.

Very nice article. There are more projects there than I had realized!
