I have added a new D implementation to the 99 bottles of 
beer-application collection.

http://www.99-bottles-of-beer.net/language-d-911.html

In my own humble opinion I think it is a much better example showing 
some of the good features of D. Such as; nested functions, switches with 
strings, dynamic arrays and modules.

Uh, execuse me when I see this gives a bad name for D ..
it's very complicated and not very much readable.

An avarage reader would probably be thinking ..
"hmm .. something that can be done in 4 lines needs 20+ lines in the D 
language !"

Then I beg you to please make a shorter/more clear program that gives 
the same output, in D or some other language if you like.

As the submit page of the site says:
  * This is not a "shortest code" contest
  * Your example should demonstrate the main advantages and features of
    the language

for (int i = 99; i != 0; i--) {
   writefl(i, " bottles of beer ...
   ...
}

Is not the same output, and does not show any of the features that set D 
apart from, say C. I do not find for-loops and writefln to be neither 
unique of, or an advantage of D.

Well, it depeneds on company of how serious it will be :)
And 99-botles site classifies the Petrovich as "real language" :)

I think it's tougue-in-cheek.  Its pretty darn useless, but it forces you to
rethink what a language can do... then you just laugh at how absurdly simple it
is.

Technically it is a sound language provided the petrovitch interpreter can do
*everything* imaginable with a given input.  Which puts a 'perfect' interpreter
within the realm of the impractical if not impossible.  Then again, what system
or program isn't without bugs or limitations?

I look at it like this: A petrovitch 'program' is an arbitrary input coupled
with a specially trained interpreter.  Now, If you think about the interpreter
in terms of genetic algorithms, then petrovitch is really a genetic algorithm
generator.  Fitness, in this case, is determined *manually* rather than
programatically, and there's ever one 'genome' to be refined.
