My concern is that a D++ will for 'compatability reasons' bring
with it, many of the flaws in C++ - just as C++ bought with it
many of the flaws in C.
This is where I think, Go got it right (although they made some
design decisions that I simply refuse to accept).
What we really need is a simpler compiler that we can trust
(through formal verfication and proofs). That is how one
implements @safe and @trusted ;-)
D is already a complex beast (just to learn - nevermind
implementing a compiler for it)!
And D++...well... whoohoo....hold on tight!
