I agree that my answers were a little OT to the main discussion
of this thread. But sometimes you want to discuss a bit more
wide things, outside a matchbox. Next time in similar
situations I will start a new thread then.
My two post didn't imply to contain significant insights, they
mostly contain a single question.
Regarding the value of those two posts, they raises some
questions, like: is D fit just for video games, or is it good
to write highly reliable programs too? Are Ada programmers
going to appreciate D?
I doubt Ada programmers would appreciate any other language, given
the type of high security applications Ada is used in.
Even C and C++ have to endure strict regulations to be used in
such environments, for example the Auto Industry MISRA standard.
