Happy new year! It's getting to be that time again, where we chat 
about our favorite language, and enjoy some beverages! If it 
seems like it's been a long time, that's because it has. Last 
month's Beerconf was early, but now that the holidays are over, 
we are back to a normal schedule. The next one will be January 
27-28, and I hope to see you all there!

I'm always happy to schedule some time to give a presentation on 
something. Please contact me via the D discord or slack and I 
will announce it here.

Cheers! 🍺

Hi everyone!

On Saturday the 27th, at 17:00 UTC, github user Chibisi has asked 
to give a presentation on his project, 
[Saucer](https://github.com/chibisi/saucer).

The purpose of the saucer project is to create bidirectional 
interop between R, the statistics programming language and D. The 
aim is that in time, it will have easily accessible capabilities 
similar to libraries like Rcpp in terms of its features and 
capability, but with the added advantage that the D programming 
language is used with R, and can bring it’s expressive power and 
other capabilities to build analytical software that can be made 
available in R as well as D being able to access R’s rich API. A 
live demonstration of the library in use will be included by way 
of an example.

Hope you all can join us! I'll post a reminder just before it 
happens.

Thanks to  realdoigt, we have a recording of this! And of course, 
thanks to Chibisi for the great library and presentation!
