D is a good language but it has some obvious flaws that are 
easily recognizable and these can be fixed. The problem is the 
management and the total tone deafness/insight who refuse to 
recognize these often because of self manufactured dogmas. This 
is really frustrating as if the odds and ends could be fixed in 
the language it could bring it to a very competitive state. It's 
like falling over right before the finishing line. The only way 
out of this is if D is forked.
