Wow!  Looks like they are actually making significant progress with the C++ 
standard.  It sounds like it will take a while before this stuff is 
implemented in C++ compilers though.

I wonder how D's current features compare with this new C++ standard.  For 
example, how does the synchronized variable in D compare to an atomic 
variable in C++ 0x.  Does D use lock-free techniques when they are 
available?  I know that there are some provisions for lock-free stuff in 
Tango, but it the synchronize keyword should support lock-free algorithms 
when available.
