Hello,

First of all, Happy New Year to everyone!

Thanks to all of the contributors that have put their time and effort into improving D!

If there are folks out there that want to contribute, we have organized issues that we want to get fixed in github projects. These projects contain important issues for our organization and are of various level of difficulty. For example, newcomers can browse the Bootcamp Issues project. More seasoned contributors
can take a look at the Memory Safety or ImportC projects.

Additionally, Iain has put up a list of the most important issues that require fixing: https://issues.dlang.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=243377&priority=P1&query_format=advanced&resolution=---

Cheers,
