I think so

I would not use Go for anything I would consider C for atm, but I
will move some stuff from Python to Go when it is supported on

NO. Just don't use features that you don't understand or like, but
don't punish happy D users by demanding a crippled D version.

I assume in order for your company to be happy in using D, you'd
want it work, right? That is all I'm saying as well, lots of git

And I'm not saying to remove *any* features at all. I'm saying
*MOVE* some features, tbd. For example Linux has Kernal and

Yes, but it would be easy to define some focused goals for each release
and refuse to touch stuff that belongs to a later release. E.g.
It would be easy to define such a list, but it would be near-impossible
I would say that D needs a usecase that puts it aside from other
languages. For Java this was the Internet. For Go it was
channel-based concurrency in conjunction with some style of green
threads (aka CSP). It is now the time of server side concurrent
programming. I would suggest to jump onto

CSP is not superior to message passing for concurrent server
programming and D already beats Go in this domain, it is purely
marketing crap. Stop repeating same statement over and over
again with no technical data to back it up. Or
People have already suggested you to actually try vibe.d at least
once before repeating CSP is necessary for easy async mantra.
How about actually doing so? vibe.d + std.concurrency gives you
pretty much standard actor model - it lacks more complicated
schedulers and network message passing

Okay, so Docker is hype? Have you seen the impact of it? Every

First, thank you all the committers for a 'gifted free' lang that

My point is on 'management' more than on 'software'. On
management, *EVERY* project is resource constrained, so imo, D
should figure out what resources it has
