To create the best JIT of the world you need skills that are probably quite different from the skills needed to design a new language constrained to be kinda backwards compatible with C and that's in the range of complexity of C++. I think you need a person able to design things in a very orthogonal way, to not add more special cases in D2 and remove some of the ones already present. I think a person like Guy L. Steele Jr. may be fitter :-)
