There's a lot more to writing compilers and designing languages than you'll find in CS books. For example, I discovered that the CS textbook optimization algorithms don't actually work. The authors had obviously never implemented them in a production compiler.
This is not the case in languages designed by language experts such as Guy Steele, Simon Peyton Jones, or John McCarthy.
I'm curious, why are you here, then? Why aren't you using Fortress, Haskell, or Lisp instead?
If you're here to criticize me, that's cool, I don't mind. I'd much prefer it, though, if you were here to help and would step up and contribute code, documentation, articles, etc. D can really use your active help.
