Max got stuck on the named parameters implementation. Moving forward with it is on is todo list. No one has submitted a new DIP for string interpolation yet.

This has been talked about for years, the DIP process is really slow or not moving forward at all, while users really want to use those now. So instead, I did it (string interpolation) in the lib:

This has nothing to do with the DIP process. No string interpolation DIP is in the queue right now.

I remember there used to be, maybe more than one string interpolation DIPs for years, so they all are got rejected?

Anyways，this is one of the most frequently asked feature in D. Even Python added into the language, not sure how many PEPs they have gone through. But I feel D is lagging far behind.

For this particular (relative simple) feature, I think we should Just-Do-It, that's why I named my package "JDI"util:

https://code.dlang.org/packages/jdiutil

Actually that's the spirit I want promote in the D community: there have been a number of known D issues unsolved for years, and people ask for their resolution again and again, so can we Just-Do-It?

You can see the status of any DIP that has undergone review here:

https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md

Then at the bottom of each DIP, in the 'Reviews' section (linked in the TOC of each DIP) you can see a summary of each review round.

Walter rejected his own string interpolation DIP:

https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/rejected/DIP1027.md

A second one was withdrawn by the authors after two rounds of Community Review:

So thank you Mike and Max, your work and your success is very welcome!

Ok. My impression from the discussion was, that a new DIP was in preparation in the background - wishful thinking ? :-)
