[BioRuby] Beautiful code for Bioinformatics

Hi Mic,

Phobos (http://dlang.org/phobos/index.html)  is the standard runtime
library that comes with the D language compiler thus Tango is more of
an auxiliary library for those that want to do things different.

Tango development might not have stopped and tango has now been ported
to D2 see this announcement
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/jgagrl$1ta5$1@digitalmars.com

I found this comparison table useful to evaluate the language features.
http://dlang.org/comparison.html

It seems most D community concerns are about syntax breaks and worry
on stability. With the recent release they have fixed a lot of
bugs(http://forum.dlang.org/thread/jhfdcu$iht$1@digitalmars.com) .
This reddit discussion highlights some of the community concerns
(http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/pqft5/d_reference_compiler_2058_is_out_15_new_features/)
 You might find it useful. Again these are personal opinions :)
