Not true :)

Hehe, I mean't outside the D community. I can think of five people off the top of my head inside the D community who are interested in it, myself excluded. ;-P

Ah. D'oh. Yeah, I think the thing closest to D is the Boehm GC (which has a good amount of research associated with it, I believe).

Ahh yes, Boehm. According to this wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boehm_garbage_collector it is also the GC that is used by D, with some minor modifications of course. If this is really the case then we really would be pushing the boundaries of GC research. My finger has been hovering over the buy link for the GC book for days ... I'm getting closer. I may not be much of compiler guy, but memory management and GC's have been a subject near and dear to my heart for some years now.
