I will be presenting D as a time-saving tool at C++Now:

I have to say it took me a very long time to come up with the
title and the abstract. How could I sell D to C++ experts?
Luckily, I asked Manu and among a long list of ideas he said
"it's about saving time" and "time is money". How can you argue
with that? ;)
Do you agree or disagree that D brings competitive advantage?
Please let me know.
Are you attending the conference?

Coming from C++, I think you can talk about compilation times
first and the easiness of making a new program with dub (even
with dependencies).
Because imho library integration and waiting for the compiler are
the biggest pain points with C++, actually I'm not sure memory
safety will make trench workers switch. Newer C++ almost erased
leaks and memory errors if you follow it.
