Commercial support might consist of companies contributing to
the D core, a mob of users putting up bounties for bugs they
want fixed or features they'd like, or a language vendor
closing up parts of the D core and selling a paid version.
The hope is that some commercial entities like the first two
aspects of D so much that they think it's worthwhile to invest
in fixing and polishing it up. Otherwise, D has no hope of
becoming a "used" language.
IMHO commercial support is now what D needs most badly.
