I was mainly referring to the fact that C++ succeeded in spite
of having initially an incomplete specification. Nowadays the
expectations are much higher.

As long as you keep changing the language, no specification
will ever be complete.
C++ will long advance. D must be out and living before C++14.
Then, it will be too late. My view.
I also think when modules are integrated into the C++ standard,
for most developers, there won't be any case left for D. Even
though D technically is superior in almost every way,
conservatism is strong enough.
