Mango has facilities for doing this though, without dynamic linking, the 
relevant classes need to be pre-linked. That's currently a limitation of 
the D runtime. However, Pragma is working on a dynamic loader that will 
fill that gap, which Mango will certainly take advantage of when it 
becomes available (soon, I think). At that point you'll be able to 
easily send, dynamically link, and execute Objects within a peer-to-peer 
network.

Take a look at the Mango example called pickle.d for a simplistic 
illustration of class serialization. The mango.cluster package is 
related, and can be used to send serialized objects around a network as 
messages and/or tasks. As I indicated, those classes currently need to 
be statically linked at each of the peer nodes.
