This, not sure what's up with all the blame on Andrei for D's 
issues. Especially blaming him for D not being enough of a 
systems language when Andrei is most known for his c++ work.

I think D is moving in the right direction, and the community 
seems more lively now than ever since I lurked this NG(~2012)

The focus on working without the GC is _still_ very fresh, yet so 
much has been done in only months. The refusal to acknowledge 
that D should be usable without a GC was pretty bad though.
