D Developers -

If anyone is interested in contributing new work covering topics 
and techniques for the D language, GameDev.net would be happy to 
host them for you. We have recently begun an open submission 
process with peer review that makes it easy for you to send us 
content to publish to our main page and reside in our archives 
that are heavily indexed by Google. Please find all the details 
here:
http://www.gamedev.net/page/resources/_/gdnethelp/how-to-publish-on-gamedevnet-r2927

Additionally, if any of you already have blogs or content out 
there that you would like to reach a wider audience we are happy 
to host re-prints of your content with links back to your 
blog/website.

Thank you for your attention.

I don't get to use D outside toy projects, given that my work is 
mostly centered on languages that live in the JVM and .NET 
ecosystems.

However, I have written a very short article as a response to a 
job interview quiz with solutions in C++ and D.

Not sure if it is publication worth.

At the end you say:


Additionally also shows D's compatibility with C++, given the 
small amount of changes between both implementations.<


Despite this, I think for an article the D version should be much 
more D-iomatic, both in formatting and in idioms/style. Like 
using contracts, not using core C functions, using pascalCase, 
etc. (Such changes are many, but they are quick and easy to do.)

Thanks for the input, I will take it for an updated version of the 
article, if it just stays on my web site.

I suggest to also offer a plain text (un-colorized) version of 
the code. I have spent minutes to convert it.

Actually that link is for reading online only, if you navigate to the 
article from the main page, there is a link to download a zip file with 
both C++ and D versions.
