Right now I'm using D to make the next major version (2.0) of my 
company's most known product - a video processing app called 
Video Enhancer. Some part of it will remain in C++ (some 
DirectShow filters) but the main app is all in D, including 
working with DirectShow via COM and GUI using DlangUI.

Recently I played with Dafny and I liked it, probably will try to 
use it for verification of some of my algorithmic code here. We 
also have some projects in C++, C#, Idris, Haxe and OCaml, many 
of which will continue to evolve.

Intel compiler, please. ;)
Or at least some good story for SIMD on Win32. Although I didn't 
really check how good/bad D is now in this regard.
