To be perfectly honest, I don't really care :)  I'm here to get stuff  
done, not debate about ideology.  Those who wish to complain about or  
avoid D, will.  And I really can't do much about that.  There are those  
who will refuse to use D because it's not copyleft.  Good luck getting  
those people on board ;)

I think we have a pretty awesome and talented team working on D, and in  
the end, performance is what matters, not who your friends are.
