This bothers me. I don't think it's at all healthy for the D community to be antaginizing Tango, especially with such speculative accusations. > We're adults. Then can we please act like it, even in response to posts that happen to be critical of some aspects of D? It's not as if oldtimer's post was tossing personal insults or anything, or criticizing anything that hasn't already been criticized by upstanding members of the NG who just happened to disagree with a particular design.
