I don't understand this either. Just because I did things in C/C++ (I 
have used while(1) quite a few times before) I don't see how this 
affects D. It may be a surprise coming from C/C++, but it can't be that 
hard to change while(1), to while(true).

The only argument I can see against it is existing D code that uses 
while(1). But then why should progress be inhibited by past mistakes... 
well I guess it's common for system languages, just look at the stuff 
C/C++ has trouble fixing... :)

I'd even be willing to convert everyones D code for them... um, I hope 
there aren't too many D programmers out there :)
