Completely, I agree with dicebot.

For a webserver usually is a Linux for many reason not a windows.
Guy who want to use a windows as server :
case 1 is a noob
case 2 is a specifics needs

Even microsoft use some linux server for his resources.

So to me the problem of D that is the waste of energy.
D exist since 1999, if we look behind, what is done?
We have :
- a huge cimetery of project
- no D killer application
- miss the goal what to do to improve D experience
- each new D release your application is broken and often with
some D compiler bugs
With around 15 years of works we are at same state as the
beginning.
What to de:
   - Stop to add new feature in D (new annotation or whatever is
not an urgent needs)
   - Get a compiler and a language stable
   - When this is done work on some free (libre) framework in some
specific fields
      * grid computing (sub-field: data-computing)
      * web-server
      * graphics conputing (sub-field: gui )
And not more, not to disperse …

But after ) years in D i start to doubt …
