Well, MISRA is an evidance that C (C++) is quite error prone by 
desing.
I think, D can do better, . And the lack of dedicated tools is 
just a consequence of shortage on funds.


And I always say that the fact that C needs so many different 
tools (including those for AUTOSAR) is its disadventage 
actually (they consumes a lot of money and development time). 
But it is how the World works now. But who knows the furure? ;)

On of the options to contribute to the d language foundation is amazon 
smile. Is there a way to also have amazon smile enabled for e.g. amazon.de?

Two New Manpower Initiatives

2019-04-15 Thread Mike Parker via Digitalmars-d-announce
I've just published a post on the blog introducing two new 
initiatives, the Manpower Share and the Manpower Fund, that came 
out of our quarterly D Language Foundation meetings. The goal is 
to help focus energy on getting more effort directed at the 
issues that fall by the wayside. The blog post has all the 
details, so I encourage everyone who cares about improving D and 
its ecosystem to give it a read.
