From the opend.org website (I am assuming that this group is related to the
opend.org website), it is difficult to tell what "d-front-end" and dli are.
Could you put a description next to each one (including dig and toy).

Suggestions:
d-front-end: When combined with gcc, d-front-end compiles D source code
dli: <no idea>
dig: A set of GUI widgets written for D programs
toy2: <no idea>

Also, it seems odd that there is a c++ toy2 code on the website.  Shouldn't it
be in D?  Maybe an explaintion of why would help (ie. we plan to convert this to
D).

Thanks!

I don't have access to opend.org, so I can't change anything on it, but 
since you asked I can tell you that it's geared towards two unfinished 
projects.

1. A project to create a D front-end for GCC written either in C or C++.
2. dig - a GUI library for Windows

The discussion for the front-end mostly occurs on another newsgroup:
D.gnu on news.digitalmars.com.

Some information is available at:
http://www.digitalmars.com/drn-bin/wwwnews?D.gnu/165

 dli: <no idea>

D Linux Interface: a version of D that Burton Radons created.  Hasn't 
been updated in a while.

 dig: A set of GUI widgets written for D programs

The version of dig at opend.org hasn't been updated for recent versions 
of D.

There is an unofficial package available updated for DMD 0.76:

 toy2: <no idea>

Some information is available at:
http://www.digitalmars.com/drn-bin/wwwnews?D.gnu/125

 D).
