Yes, it definitely is an early alpha of something that we would
like to release as part of the next edition of Sun Studio (expected
in the Spring of 2009).

Thank you for the kind words. This is definitely appreciated.

There's been quite a few discussions around making D-Light available
as a NB plugin. From a technical standpoint, this is doable. The 
question is all about prioritization. Stay tuned for more. Now, of
course, the biggest payback from D-Light is on platforms that implement
DTrace, so even if it becomes a NB plugin don't expect it to be of
much use on something like Windows. 

Thanks,
Roman Shaposhnik (Team D-Light).
