The final post in the series on Funkwerk is the first in a new 
series of User Stories. Three Funkwerk developers share some of 
their enthusiasm about D. Michael Schnelle talks about the power 
of ranges, Ronny Spiegel tells us how generated code is better 
code, and Stefan Rohe shows off some of the company's community 
outreach.

Not only can be. It must be. auto is not legal in a foreach loop in D, which
is arguably a bit inconsistent, but for better or worse, that's the way it
is.

Ahh, I didn't know it had become illegal or at least I think I 
remember foreach loops accepting auto in the past, but that's 
probably years ago or maybe I remember wrong and it has always 
been illegal?

AFAIK, it has always been illegal, and periodically, it's been brought up
that it should be legal for consistency, but for better or worse, it hasn't
been changed.
