OT: next D book

[Andrei Alexandrescu]

Thanks. I will be light on pattern specifics because I want the book to 
be reasonably short and focused. But metaprogramming will be an integral 
part of the book. In fact, I introduce a template function as soon as I 
introduce functions. There's no necessity to save templates for advanced 
chapters.
