WebAssembly reach a first step a first consensus on the design of 
the initial (MVP) WebAssembly API and binary format:
- http://webassembly.org/
- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/WebAssembly
- https://github.com/webassembly

To remember it will be the next  open standard by a W3C Community 
Group to create portable and efficient application across major 
web browser. A such feature can offer to D a chance to have a 
killer app in 3D web application instead to develop complex C++ 
code.
