That's a very kind way to put it. ;)

As you certainly know (but others might not), we currently just 
invoke LDC as a custom command for building the runtime 
libraries, without any proper language support at all. This shows 
that CMake is flexible enough to handle atypical use cases like 
that, but I'm looking forward to your work for proper language 
support (compiler detection, …).

If I remember correctly, Ben Boeckel from Kitware was also 
looking into adding D support to CMake a while back. How does 
your project relate to his?

Cheers,
David
