> A legitimate question - where are the D3 plans? One step at a time. We just got x64 support on Linux, Windows is still far away from that. Shared libraries is the next big issue. Proper implementation of D2's features is also still ahead.

A language with a thousand cool but half- or unimplemented features is of no use either, not to mention the role of development tools. > D2 has little potential without AST macros. D (the language, ignoring implementation quirks here) is already far ahead of many another language, especially in terms of metaprogramming. Even D1 brings substantial productivity gains compared to C++. Naturally there's plenty of room for improvements but I wouldn't call it having little potential.
