A history lesson for D

[Justin Johansson]

Algol-68 came out in, well, 1968.  Apparently the language was 
considered 'finished' with the release of the Revision of Algol-68
in 1974.  By this time it was too late for the language to gain any
real traction.

A number of contemporary topics on this newsgroup should be tempered 
with a sobering reminder of the fate that awaits a new PL with the 
introduction of new language features/constructs for D2 especially at 
this eleventh hour.

Sincerely,

Justin Johansson
