Hi, Apologies if this post appears twice - it hadn't appeared on the website after 2 hours had passed, so I'm reposting it directly on the website, rather than via email. I've just successfully used D for tiny commercial project, and I've really enjoyed it (I normally use Python, Java or NodeJS, but I needed a native executable for this project). (I have previous experience of C and have dabbled in C++, Haskell and Racket.) I switched to D after an hour because I was not enjoying using C/APR after having used scripting languages for the last couple of years. I've been an early adopter of NodeJS and have noted how critical NPM was for the success of the platform. (It handles module version dependencies better than any other system I've seen - two required modules of a project can depend on *different* versions of a third library and it all just works.) Is there a similar repository or list of recommended opensource (non-GPL or LGPL) D libraries? All the best, Chris. https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/modules lists popular NodeJS modules, all developed in the last year and a half.

Will your design cope with the situation as follows: ModA 1.0.0 requires ModB>=1.0.0<2.0.0 and ModC>=1.0.0<2.0.0 ModB 1.0.0 requires ModD>=1.0.0<2.0.0 ModC 1.0.0 requires ModD>=2.0.0<3.0.0 ModD 1.0.0 and 2.0.0 are both available with different interfaces and semantics.
I guess it would be possible as long as there are no conflicting symbols. I would guess it mostly depends on environment, i.e. what the compiler and the linker allow.Could I recommend SemVer? http://semver.org/
I will have a look at that.Thanks, Chris.
