I was thinking of using D for my game server (which is in C++ at 
the moment)... is the gc going to be such an issue? I know of 
@nogc but I also do know that some stuff needs gc, e.g strings 
and exceptions.

 From the things I read on this forum, it seems work is being done 
to make exceptions not use the gc. How is that moving along;
