This is just a few cut-paste from the collated list. Some were 
reported but found later to be duplicates, many were existing 
bugs, so no new bugzilla was created in those cases.

We had no problem with installation or IDE support like many 
forum posts seem to talk about. Untar DMD tarball just worked 
when bin put on the path for Win, Mac and Linux. This easy 
installation to $HOME/somewhere was a bonus most developers liked 
and many thought even nicer than installing Python.

I feel like I've been bashing D here but that wasn't my intention 
at all. I am a D convert, broken beyond repair. All our 
developers liked D as a language. The biggest win I think was the 
ability to write code that cleanly brought together C, C++ and 
Python.
