Many thanks to Sebastian Wilzbach, Nicholas Wilson, Mike Franklin, and others!

It's been a long and often frustrating endeavor, but we made it and I'm very 
pleased with the results.

At the risk of embarrassing myself: Am I the only one who finds they 
need to google a DIP number every single time in order to have any idea 
what it refers to? (And then massage the query to get to the right place.)

On the off chance I'm not alone:
https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/other/DIP1000.md

Ie DIP1000: "Scoped Pointers": "...provides a mechanism to guarantee 
that a reference cannot escape lexical scope" in large part to aid 
non-GC memory management.

With that aside, this does indeed sound like a great milestone (not that 
I doubted!). Kudos and congrats all around!

Does that mean -dip1000 will become the default compiler behaviour in
the near future?

Also, does it only apply to  safe code, so that I have to start
annotating stuff with  safe in order to benefit from it?

As per the DIP and from my experience, yes.

Status:	Superseded

https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/other/DIP1000.md

Maybe this needs updated?

It was marked superseded because the implementation differs 
significantly enough from the proposal that it would require a 
near complete rewrite.

Congratulations to everyone involved. Have a good discussion at 
DCONF, and I am already eager to hear what the next main focus in 
the near future will be.
