Hello Peter,

thank you very much for your continued support of our D based games.

I intend to review and upload your packages soon. Unfortunately I'm not
well versed in D because I hardly ever use it. I would like to see our D
games supported post Stretch but this might not be an easy task if we
need to find someone who is interested in the undeaD library. Well, I
guess we will see. It's a shame that the D language is rather unstable
and requires that much maintenance work.

Regards,

Markus
