Awesome. The site could have a section with "external links" pointing to 
these articles, as well as SICP (which is also available online at 
http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/), The View From Berkeley 
(http://view.eecs.berkeley.edu/wiki/Main_Page) and other texts that are 
important to grasp in order to understand and shape the future of D.
