Allows dependent code to still access the driver from within their shared static ~this. vibe-core notably falls into this category. |

EventCore
This is a high-performance native event loop abstraction for D, focused on asynchronous I/O and GUI message integration. The API is callback (delegate) based. For a higher level fiber based abstraction, take a look at vibe.d.
