Please read my post from earlier:

The survey *will* have an influence on what gets priority in
the future, but it certainly can't be seen as representing the
majority of D programming interests.
Good. That's definitely for the better.
It is not a dictatorship (read this sentence over and over
till you get it).
No one is forcing you to use BetterC and its existence doesn't
change anything about how you can use the language. Obviously,
there are a number of areas that need work. The survey can help
decide which of those to put resources into first, but it
doesn't mean that other things deemed important have to be
dropped.
That sentence was to counter psychoticRabbit. I didn't mean it
literally. If you've read my earlier posts, it's not BetterC I
have an issue with, it's the allocation of time.
As you said, hopefully the survey will help clear up these issues
with D.
