Well personally I have no need for the RPC part. Though if it 
gets added to the Java implementation of Cap'n Proto I will 
probably port it.

The D implementation works well. I developed it for a hobby 
project. Game server in D. Client in Unity. At work we have been 
using the C++ Cap'n Proto for IPC for a while. Recently we have 
also started using the D implementation for configuration files.
