It's very common in D to not put the type unless it's absolutely necessary (e.g. use auto everywhere). This can be both good and bad for code readability and maintenance, but it's particularly useful with generic code, which is generally promoted quite heavily. So, I think that you'll find that most of the people around here generally don't explicitly use the type unless they need to (though there's always someone who's an exception). - Jonathan M Davis
