Well, I tried to do my little 'homework'...wrote to the QtD devs explaining them that their project is essential to adopting D for our project. Moreover, informed them that only for the sake of trying QtD I've created 32bit chroot on my machine(64bit dmd, do you hear me?) and got some help on #qtd in order to build "hello world" (instructions at http://www.dsource.org/projects/qtd/wiki/BuildLinux are now up-to-date). Lastly, I told devs that despite of current status of QtD, we have decided to 'gamble' and will use D/QtD for our project. The next step is to order Andrei's book, start learning the language, experiment with non-GUI stuff and try to help (in any way) to push QtD further. Jonathan> QtD is a huge service to the D community. Indeed! Coming from Haskell community where all the GUI libs (bindings) are in hands of just few devs, I sincerely hope that users of D will recognize importance of QtD for the success of language itself and help the project to become complete and fully usable asap.
