While those are both important, isn't it even more important to have the 
existing 32-bit implementation complete? How can you showcase a language 
that's incomplete and buggy? Can't both those features wait until after 
D2 is considered polished enough to be released?

I keep seeing reports from people running into bugs, unfinished 
features, and incomplete documentation. There's no end in sight, either, 
yet a book has been released and the language is promoted as if it were 
a finished product.
