Position on the OpenD compiler

[SingingBush]

it's early days for the OpenD fork but I think it's worth stating my current position on it for the purposes of this project.

I don't have personal need to use the fork so I'm not likely to try using it any time soon. I'm not against minor changes being made for the binary to be recognised as a D compiler (as it may not work out of the box), but I don't currently have plans to look into it.

If it turns out that D and OpenD start to diverge significantly then I'll likely be apposed to making any changes to support it. Keeping up to date with changes to the D language, phobos, 3 existing compilers, Kotlin, the Intellij Platform, etc is already time consuming enough.

I wish the opendlang team luck with their project. Perhaps if it gains significant adoption my stance may change in the future but for now I'm going to remain cautious about it.
