If do write something, why not write it as an article for Overload?
Andrei did a workshop and keynote at ACCU 2016, it would be good to get
some articles in ACCU journals about D, especially ones from people
doing the C++ → D switch.

Getting more discussion of D at ACCU conference is always welcome.

Language specific conferences are increasingly the trend, but their
main purpose is to reinforce membership of the language tribe rather
than actually do much marketing. ACCU has never been a C and C++ only
conference: Java, then C#, as well as other languages, and agile
development methods, have always had a core place in the programme. So
about 55% of the conference is C++ this year, but that is exactly the
sort of audience to take some good D sessions to.
