you are wrong. and you definitely know nothing about garbage

people keep coming with "suggestions" and "solutions" without
even a small knowledge in problem field.
That's pretty harsh Ketmar. It's obvious he knows the general
ideas and was just wondering if using the .NET GC was a viable
option. I think responding to others in such a demeaning way is
harmful to the D community as it isolates people. It doesn't
encourage people to be curious or want to start a discussion.
Having people, especially newcomers to D come in and make
suggestions and solutions is a great thing for a community. It
means they saw enough potential in the language to want to know
more and maybe even how they could contribute.
