I've done some preliminary work on a wiki page that attempts to
convince C++ programmers who are on the fence about D, who need
to know what D provides over C++11 and C++14.

I don't know if a Coming_From page is the right place for this
kind of information. What is the target audience for
Coming_From - programmers who are already learning D, or
programmers who are investigating D to decide whether or not to
try it? If the former, where should we place information for
the latter?
Contributions to the page are very welcome. I think D's syntax
is intuitive enough for C++ programmers that we can use
commented D code examples. I could need some help filling up
the sections and proposing new sections.
You should mention stack variables and members initialized by
default. This avoids many release-only bugs.
