This sometimes makes me wonder if D1 and D2 are going to evolve into separate but related languages with separate niches at some point, something like Scheme vs. Common Lisp or C vs. C++. D1, with its simplicity and the availability of Tango, seems well suited to be a Java++ kind of language. D2, with its extremely powerful metaprogramming, greater complexity and the availability of Phobos2, seems more like a (C++0x)++.
D1, by definition, isn't going to evolve any more than C++98 is going to evolve.
