Just to clarify, I'm not talking about this. I prefer to use D even with its overhead (when I can afford it), but that doesn't mean D shouldn't take this seriously and say "bah, everybody is doing big binaries, why should I care?". One thing is "we can't focus on that because we have other priorities but we are concerned about the issue" and another *very different* thing is "we don't care, even if the binary size still grow". It's a very nice rant, and I agree, but you missed the point. I'm not talking about not using D, I'm talking about recognizing this as an issue (even when it might not be a huge one). -- Leandro Lucarella (AKA luca) http://llucax.com.ar/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GPG Key: 5F5A8D05 (F8CD F9A7 BF00 5431 4145 104C 949E BFB6 5F5A 8D05) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Did you know the originally a Danish guy invented the burglar-alarm unfortunately, it got stolen
