Anything high-level. A weird request in a systems language ng? I program 
desktop apps in C++, but mostly am working on libraries (containers and 
such) lately. So, something with a GUI interface maybe? A database app? 
Or doesn't anyone do that kind of thing with D? A small commandline 
utility would work too. Or even a server app. Obviously nothing realtime 
or device driverish. Preferably something non-scientific so as not having 
to grok the domain abstractions as well as the language.
