I hate to say this, because so much of this project makes sense 
to me -- the design of the language, the effort that has been put 
into documentation, the helpfulness of the community -- but I 
think I have to throw in the towel. I can't spend any more time 
on this and it appears that D is just not solid enough for the 
work I'm trying to do with it.
