There's a purple beast in Dylan, just dying to get out...

Sadly, if I gave a talk, after the first 5 minutes, there'd be 
nobody left to listen ;-)

I would like to see Chuck Allison talk about the experiences of 
students approaching D. I think that would be really worthwhile - 
or even yourself for that matter, given your strong interest in 
this area. Technical stuff is good and helpful, but I like to 
know about peoples experiences too...that's what really interests 
me the most, and should be at the core of any language design. So 
somebody examining D from this perspective could be really 
insightful to those contributing to the language.

It's really critical that D remain accessible to newcomers, or 
its' replacement is just around the corner.
