about before?

Or at the very least, on the website page that lists the NGs, maybe D.learn 
should be placed first?

Yep, at least D should be renamed into something that indicates the  
discussion of language-specific stuff.

It would help to have a clear set of requirements. For instance, should 
off-topic and "general" topics:

- Stay in this "language discussion" area (so maybe rename "D" to "D.misc"?)
- Move to the "asking/learning about the language" area (so maybe rename 
"D.learn" to "D.users" and "D" to "D.dev")
- Or have it's own area (so create a "D.misc" and rename "D" to "D.dev")

?

And I still think D.learn (or whatever it ends up beng called) should be 
listed *first* on the website.

I don't know, a distinction based on language and library specific stuff  
could also be made.
