Hi,
Dr. Dobbs has a nice editorial article about the rise of new

D.

Unfortunely the editor also points out that D is not fully
open source,
without specifiying what
exactly is not open source.
I've already posted a comment about it, stating that there are
open
source implementations and the
complete code is available in Github.
Still not visible, maybe waiting approval.

DMD's backend isn't open source.
I know that, but DMD is only the reference compiler.
While this is an unfortunate situation, there are other D
compilers available,
which are fully open source.
The most important parts of D are the libraries and the compiler
frontend, and those are open source.
