obviously the OO guys can't live without

If you've got workarounds for std.zip and std.date, can you take a look at
the sources to them and suggest a fix?

I don't.
maybe I'll take a look at it anyway...
I can't imagine the problem with std.date being complex...

You've made a C/C++ compiler that works fine in this area, so why
can't the D compiler?

phobos:
- at least the linux version has to catchup to windows!


last I checked, it was still at version 0.77

The linux front end is at the same version as the windows one.

Ahh. Different topic School. The reference here is about the root Object

That should be in a separate "language" section.

- Array arithmetic operations

 ---------

Silly holes in phobos:

- std.file - copy function
- std.date - functions to get/set/construct by components (year, month, 
day, hour, minute, second....)
- probably others....
- a decent I/O system (what are your thoughts on this Walter?)

Some waking up of the status column on 
http://www.wikiservice.at/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?FeatureRequestList....

I'll probably set up a "Pending peeves" section on Wiki4D soon, maybe on 
my personal page for now since they're the things I personally feel need 
dealing with.  Maybe some official "to do for 1.0" list should be set up 
at some point....

OT:

It's home is at dsource.org, but it's still going through a kind of "under
the radar" testing phase. Dsc is actually a family of three layered
packages: io, http-server, and servlet-style framework. I will probably try
to get the io package checked-in to dsource.org today, while the other two
will perhaps lie-low a while longer.

I'll email you a current zip file of all three, though I'll need your
address to do so (perhaps you could ping me, via the address given?). I'd
like to ask that you provide some feedback in return: good, bad, or ugly --
all of it is valuable.
