And for those who are curious what Status "A" means:

'If a programming language has a rating that is higher than 0.7% (yes, 
this number is arguable but we had to fix it somewhere) for at least 3 
months it is rewarded status "A"'.
      (From http://www.tiobe.com/?tiobe_index)

D was rated at 1.205% this month.
The rating has to do with how many hits the language gets on popular 
search engines.

I wonder how they make sure they're counting the right hits for things 
like 'C' and 'D'...
