dm.D.announce? The article hardly is relevant news to D users –
unfortunately, the author just mentions that he has had a look at
D a few years ago.

Not to say that bringing the community's attention to D-related
articles would be a bad thing, of course…

An interesting quotation from the various threads:

The nbl doesn't exist yet. It has to make the mediocre corporate 
developer much more productive as java did over c++. Nothing can 
do that as of now. There are several technically superior 
languages compared to java but that isn't what is needed to be 
the nbl.<


Another quotation:

The next big language [...] it'll be something that builds 
profiling and unit testing and better source control support 
right into the language, compiler, and tools.<

That's interesting, but how do you add some source control 
support in a language? I remember only things like #region 
#endregion
