My proposal for a talk has been accepted, and I'll be in
Cologne next month presenting to industry peers.
Congratulations and it sounds good, however I would say that
it's something of a truism in sales not to criticize the
competition - it doesn't have the effect that you think it
will. The expressiveness of D code next to the (long winded
etc.) equivalents in the other languages will be clear, so it's
more effective to praise those languages for their historical
strengths and let D talk for itself as a good improvement and
worthy of investigation. IMHO.
If I understand correctly he will be doing a comparison, not a
criticism (except for Swift).
