A couple comments:
a) No mention of targeting increased organizational participation 
(academic, corporate, etc). Not trying to suggest it should or 
shouldn't be a goal. Just that if it is goal meaningful effort 
will be directed toward in H1 then it'd be worth including in the 
writeup.

b) More specificity in the roadmap and priorities, to the extent 
they are known - As a potential D adopter, it'd be useful to have 
better insight into where the language might be a year or two 
out. For example, what forms of C++ integration might be 
available, or if the major components of the standard library are 
likely to be available nogc. However, it's hard to discern this 
from the writeup. Perhaps in many cases it would be premature to 
establish such goals, but to the extent there has been concrete 
thought it'd be useful to write it up. This comment is similar to 
a number of others suggesting a preference for more concrete 
goals.
