Yep! I really wonder where that skill comes from, i.e. is he working in  
the compiler business or something like that?
For me it's quite hard to figure out the most generic/appropriate way to  
fix a bug in dmd. But he seemed immediately knowledgeable about dmd's  
internals.
Furthermore I wonder why he is that dedicated. I haven't seen him actually  
use D for some project ;)
