Won a programming contest using D - Thank you for the tool!

[Ivan Kazmenko via Digitalmars-d]

Hi,

I just won a three-month-long programming contest (Al 
Zimmermann's Programming Contest - Alphabet City) using the D 
programming language as my main tool.  I want to share my 
happiness, and express my deep gratitude, to the people who work 
on this tool.  You are a part of what made this a pleasant and 
educative experience.  Thank you!

The contest is basically about writing a program that plays a 
solitaire version of Scrabble given a fixed order in which tiles 
come to the rack.
