The fact that its community, when faced with the question "What
do you think are the worst parts of D?", will readily have a 35
page verbal fistfight over what the worst parts of D are.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that discussion is happening about
such things, but I think it may be better to have it in a more
structured manner in the future, and with a little less emotional
investment.
That being said, the second worst part of D for me is the current
state of documentation, which is something that is often
mentioned. I'd be happy to take part in a "docs initiative" where
some of us sit together and talk about how we can improve the
documentation of the language, collect input from outside, and
then implement the changes that are found to be necessary. This
would make it easier for people who don't wish to set up the
entire build environment for the documentation on their side to
participate in documentation adjustments by giving feedback,
while a somewhat dedicated group of people then focus on making
decisions reality.
