I'm planning to transform it into blog post (or series). Right 
now it just
has some scratch notes. Feel free to let me know everything I 
got wrong.

That's a good idea. I think most of us did that while listening 
to the
talk. I kept telling myself: 'oh wait, that'd simpler in D' or 
'that
does not exist in D'.

As for the class inheritance problem, I'd also be interested in 
an answer.

When he explained why C++ inferred a const int type as int, he 
tripped me up because D does drop const for value types. But D 
does the simple to explain thing, may not be the expected thing 
(seen questions about it in D.learn), but it is simple to explain.
