I've been wanting to write a D-styled data format module but just got extremely discouraged :) Most of the functionality I need for this is already available in D2's std.conv. Is it possible to add this functionality into D1's std.conv?

Have a look at std2. It's a backporting of some features of Phobos 2, including some of the new std.conv, to D1: http://www.dsource.org/projects/std2Looks nice! Why can't this be in official Phobos1? It's a ploy from the D2 camp, right?

"Saaa" <empty needmail.com> Why can't this be in official Phobos1?Especially because the documentation gets more and more outdated the further D2 progresses from 2.008 :(

But that's a bit harsh, no?I fixed it to how I meant it. But I do find it a tad strange. What disadvantage is there? Additional bugs maybe.. Sorry, this is probably a very old and closed discussion :)Also, if you need the Phobos docs from 2.008, just download the 2.008 DMD zip. They're in there.Maybe the docs could be on the project page, as now the links are to the latest phobos.

And as long as D2 Phobos is in flux, porting D2 to D1 would be a problem -- D1 has to be stable, it can't have something added to it which is an unstable work-in-progress. The question of whether a stable part of Phobos D2 could be backported to Phobos1 is I think still open.Why can't this be in official Phobos1?
