What is the state of the "concurrent" library? Is it buildable with the current D compiler?  Where is the stable version, if one exists?  DSource.org version seems to be 10 mo old, and doesn't (win) compile.  Or ???

Which part were you interested in? The locks and latches/semaphores/etc and concurrent containers have been redone and are at http://home.comcast.net/~benhinkle/. The light-weight tasks (FJTask) and the atomic int and var classes haven't been maintained. I posted a note to the forum a while ago about the state of concurrent. If dsource had a place for "sunset"ed project I'd put this one there.

Thanks, Ben.  Want to write a multi-threaded multiple pinger quickly.  MinTL looks to be useful for what I need.  Haven't kept up with the newsgroup much since last May, but I use D for home utils regularly.
