Yes, so D could position itself as a higher level alternative to 
C, than C++, and focus on Linux applications.

But then we have to understand what those specific programmers 
are looking for and make the changes/improvements needed to grab 
that market.

Right now, D is too much of a personal expression to allow such 
market targetting to happen. But who knows?
