Hypocrisy is a pet peeve of mine. How about discussing the gory problems 
with const, and discussing the true state of the language at the next D 
talk? If you're going to bash Go presentations for cherry-picking, you 
should hold yourself to the same standards.

As for why I did the research, if people are going to deny statements I 
made, then I'm going to back them up with facts. I did rescind one 
erroneous statement of mine.

My original post was in response to a thread about somebody looking to 
jump into D2, and somebody who responded asking why D1 was even being 
worked on. I'd say my post was on topic.
