Looks like I will give a talk about D to our local Functional
Programming User Group in August. Feel free to join, if you can
be in Karlsruhe, Germany:
http://www.meetup.com/de/The-Karlsruhe-Functional-Programmers-Meetup-Group/events/223455553/
Presentation done. Only six people in the audience, but they
appreciated it. 5/6 already had heard about D. 3/6 had played
with it.
If you are interested in my slides:

I spent some time on D history and philosophy. Mostly frontpage
stuff.
Then I defined what Functional Programming is imho.
Showed D's functional features.
Then I also talked about "Design by Introspection" or in my talk
"Where typeclasses fail".
Finished with D advertisement.
