 What is the state of the "concurrent" library? Is it buildable with the 
 current
 D compiler?  Where is the stable version, if one exists?  DSource.org 
 version
 seems to be 10 mo old, and doesn't (win) compile.  Or ???

Which part were you interested in? The locks and latches/semaphores/etc and 
concurrent containers have been redone and are at 
http://home.comcast.net/~benhinkle/. The light-weight tasks (FJTask) and the 
atomic int and var classes haven't been maintained. I posted a note to the 
forum a while ago about the state of concurrent. If dsource had a place for 
"sunset"ed project I'd put this one there.

Thanks, Ben.  Want to write a multi-threaded multiple pinger quickly.  MinTL
looks to be useful for what I need.  Haven't kept up with the newsgroup much
since last May, but I use D for home utils regularly.
