Totally. We're just missing the funds...
Not to criticise your current efforts, but might I suggest you
shift some emphasis to obtaining sponsorship? I may be wrong, but
it appears that this is something D seriously lacks. All major
open source projects have financial backing. Organisations like
the Linux Foundation, the Mozilla Foundation, the Apache
Foundation and others exist in part to raise money for the
projects they look after. If D has serious aspirations of "making
it", it should have the same.
