While those are both important, isn't it even more important to have the existing 32-bit implementation complete? How can you showcase a language that's incomplete and buggy? Can't both those features wait until after D2 is considered polished enough to be released?
I keep seeing reports from people running into bugs, unfinished features, and incomplete documentation. There's no end in sight, either, yet a book has been released and the language is promoted as if it were a finished product.
