Fortunately a lot has changed since :o).
Please, do tell. ;)
Not much that people don't know already. We have one solid D
project
installed and a couple of heavy-hitting engineers have
started using D
for scripts and tools (e.g. replacing Python for a 2x speedup
for the
same source code size/complexity).
I would have expected a lot more speedup than just 2x, D being
a compiled language.
Amdahl's law.

BTW, D needs a multithreading example here:
