Indeed, but since I was comparing to vanilla C# 4.0 and .NET I figured it  
was only fair to compare to DMD 2.062 and Phobos. Once you start comparing  
and contrasting third party libraries the scope of the topic quickly  
balloons in size. The biggest problem I had in putting this talk together  
was deciding what to cut. I ended up leaving about 60% of my originally  
planned content on the cutting room floor... I really wanted to give you  
guys more!
