There's no such thing as bad publicity.

And my "opinions" weren't completely wrong. You can easily see this by 
writing a 5 LOC backend plugin for the 64-bit ARM backend of DMD. This 
plugin should send you email every time the compilations succeeds. When 
you compile this plugin, DMD should generate better whole program 
optimizations than GCC 4.5. The plugin should also use lambdas with a 
terser syntax than Haskell and its whole program type inference. The same 
heap allocating closure should also work with both D1 and D2. Did I 
forget to say that the plugin should also display the contents of some 
internal compiler struct with .stringof - luckily the construct is fully 
documented in the spec.
