Walter, you do understand that not all software has to be robust - in
the critical systems sense - to be quality software? And that in fact,
the majority of software is not critical systems software?...
I was under the impression that D was meant to be a general purpose
language, not a language just for critical systems. Yet, on language
design issues, you keep making a series or arguments and points that
apply *only* to critical systems software.
