Would it be possible to find out at DConf in Munich why exactly D is so popular in Germany (my impression) and in other countries of Europe (and that general post code) like France, Italy, GB, Romania and Russia etc.?
To the best of my knowledge, there is currently no job offer in D programming in France. It is not even required/highlighted as a second/bonus skill to apply for a job.
Perhaps it is used within a research and development department of very few companies for very specific tasks but it's unheard of and the mentalities of top management won't change before long because we are a retarded population who needs a lot of safety nets and huge amounts of guarantees to actually to take action...
Also, french citizens don't like taking financial and technological risks, now adopting D for profesionnal use is a big one.
For example, to be hired full time as a Python programmer is possible for only 3-4 years and was regarded as an "exotic" language until now.
I know it's sucks...
