Go now is not advertised as a system language, and I think it has 
found its niche, sufficiently different from D. So there's much 
less reason for them to be discussed together.

One year ago Rust was less developed compared to now. And Rust is 
meant to be a low level system language (from what I am seeing 
lately, it seems Rust is gaining a niche at a level lower than D).

In threads where both Rust and D are discussed, I suggest 
everybody to not express bad opinions in general about Rust. If 
you want to criticize Rust then I suggest to write only on very 
specific features at a time.
