That's fine if you want to find D's official homepage. But if you want to find a library for a specific purpose or something like that it's not that easy because you can't be sure that the author wrote exactly that on his homepage (and not just "my <something_useful> library for D"). So you end up looking ad Dsource, google code (even though they have a lot of projects flagged with "D" that have nothing to do with this language), sourceforce, ... Maybe you find nothing and later, by accident, stumble upon it on some private homepage.. I really wish you'd have named the language "mars" ;-) Cheers, - Daniel
