Clearly Walter and everyone should work on whatever they think is important. I hope your statement doesn't imply that all development effort is going to be put into C++ compatibility.

Ideally it would.

Is C++ interop really that important or is it another one of those "if D had this, *then* I would use it!" dismissals. C interop is clearly crucial. Operating system interfaces are written in C, and not being able to call C functions is hugely limiting. But C++? I honestly can't envision a situation where I would actually care about C++ interop. Is this truly a blocker for some people? Like an actual, honest blocker and not just a false flag?
