I first touched D two months ago so it is probably too early for 
me to make the following assessment; but, all in all it didn't 
took too much time to grab the potential this language has, it is 
fucking powerful no matter how you look at it. I will not be 
elaborating further right now since this topic is not the place 
to, but, eventually I'll post my impressions so far; which 
translates more-or-less to the following: I'm here to stay :)
