 Ths emphasizes the fact that druntime needs more love.

That conclusion is given along with these numbers:

|                        | dmd | phobos | druntime |
|------------------------|-----|--------|----------|
|open bug reports        | 3000| 900    |       300|
|Pull requests / month   |  85 | 130    |        30|
|contributors last month |  10 |   5    |         4|

To me, that looks like dmd needs more love, given the vast amount 
of bugs (3000) compared to druntime (300).

The opened druntime PRs do not necessarily fix any issues or add 
new features, but rather contain minor refactorings of small, 
unreported, bug fixes. So I would say that there is no 
relationship betweem the number of bugs of a component and the 
number of PRs that are opened.

The fundamental reason why dmd has more opened bugs is because it 
is the oldest codebase among the 3. Also, some bugs are reported 
as belonging to dmd when they're actually druntime bugs, because 
it is difficult to properly identify the component if you are not 
a contributor. I have changed the component part of many dmd bugs 
to druntime over time.

D needs a list, just like buglist,'todolist'.
Everyone takes a task from the todolist, completes it, and 
receives reward.
