I bought the book and am trying to patiently learn this language. I follow various tutorials here and around the web that frequently won't compile. I suspect it has something to do with D1/D2/Phobos/Tango and not just really poor unvetted tutorials. It would really be helpful if those providing references, code snippets, tutorials, etc clearly identify the context (i.e D1/D2/Phobos/Tango). I just think it would help accelerate the spread and acceptance of this language if more of the code worked as listed.

Even the particular version of (DM)D in which it has been tested, given how much the language has been changing. There have been language-level changes to D2 very recently, and bug 1824 is one of probably many that still need to be dealt with before it can stabilise.
