I really don't see what's not working in this.
Trying to get new D users from Python users is the main
problem.
I came to D from Python/R/Matlab. The biggest issue for me
wasn't error messages so much as the lack of good libraries
for a lot of things.
Nevertheless, the longer I've been using D, the more I agree
that there could be some improvements in D's error messages.
Andre had posted about the Sparrow language a while back

He liked their use of concepts. I think at a minimum it would
enable better error messages.
I too come from the R world and I have been playing the game of
flitting between R and C++; using C++ (through RCpp) to speed
up slow things in R for some time and I have been looking for a
better solution.
What are you doing with Rcpp that you can't do with D?
