It's funny that people spend millions on technologies that makes
mediocre or crap languages better, but they would never invest in
something like D, because they dread the investment. I think it's
because D doesn't have a price tag attached to it. "If it's for free, it
must be sh*t", I often hear people say. Maybe we should have a D
Enterprise Edition (DEE) and sell it for $1,000. Believe me, people
would take to it like ducks take to water.
Or we put together a D consultancy firm, perhaps as part of D's future
foundation?
Starting at e.g. bug fixes ext. with price tag ranges on them.
Perhaps even a price tag on working on DIP's.
