Congratulations! Thanks Andrei for pushing hard a Facebook and 
thanks to all core D devs for their hard work too.

Looking forward to the blog post...and the day I can code at work 
in D

Before D
     ,-~~-.___.

      /  \-'~;    /~~~(O)
     /  __/~|   /       |
   =(  _____| (_________|

After D!
