Andrei Alexandrescu:

C++ intelligentsia seems to have a superiority complex with regard to D, and that's entirely understandable.

D and C++ compete for a similar programming niche, but C++ is so much widespread compared to D, that it's like comparing a blue whale with an ant. In practice there is no real match and competition. D is not going to replace C++ in the next few years, and probably it will not eat a significant percentage of the C++ pie. So I think it's a good idea to have a little more collaboration between the two language communities. Such "superiority complex" is not going to help any one.

Bye,
