Aye, and I just finished the first draft this week, now doing the 
second draft and it is moving along at an excellent pace, I'm 
pretty sure we're going to release earlier than expected on the 
website.


BTW it now has a cover image, that's a painting my brother did 
called "View from Phobos", seemed appropriate :P

Absolutely. But I don't see how these tools are in any way D-related.

Like MongoDB, I’ve noted that D tends to be favoured by forward-thinking
individuals and used on pioneering projects.

This is simply a gift from us to you.

If this was inappropriate I'll not post such messages again.
