I am getting back to stalking the D forum after a brief hiatus.

It was nice to see this article.  I will most certainly read it!
This coming Spring, I am once again going to use D in the 
Programming Languages course at Vassar.  I am assuming that it 
would be okay to circulate the version of this article, at the 
time, among the students.

Happy New Year D-ders!
