Right. Just keep making comments about D in public forums in appropriate 
contexts. It works.

I give presentations on D frequently. I always start with:

1. Who has heard of D?

2. Who has written programs in D?

Over time, the hands raised on (1) have gone from a few to essentially 
100%. (2) is rising steadily.
